South Carolina Well Data Turns Public Records Into Local Groundwater Reports
A location-based lookup tool for exploring 18,415 USGS groundwater well records across all 42 South Carolina counties.
Field notes
The service reorganizes a USGS groundwater-site inventory around a property-search workflow rather than requiring visitors to navigate the source database directly. County-level pages expose both sample size and median depth, with notable variation such as 98 feet in Beaufort County and 460 feet in Colleton County. Its cost framing multiplies local depth data by published per-foot rates, while the methodology page preserves the distinction between a nearby record and an exact address match.
