  • Water Chemistry: Water chemistry now includes all water sample chemistry analysis data (water chemistry data) where available. Previously, only the standard water chemistry analysis data was presented, where available. The Standard Analysis data remains intact; the additional analysis data is referred to as Full Data.

  • Water Chemistry filters: New filters were added to support the additional water chemistry data. You can now filter wells by selecting an Analyte Group, e.g. Pesticides, and/or a Chemical Name or Code, e.g. Aldrin. If you select an Analyte Group, of which Standard Analysis is one, the Chemical Name or Code list is automatically filtered to show only those chemical belonging to the selected Analyte Group.

  • Must Contain filter: the Full Chemical Analysis option has been replaced with Water Chemistry. Select this to filter search results to show wells for which water chemistry data is available.

  • Well Details: The Water Chemistry tab has been updated to include all water chemistry data, where available. This tab now contains two tables: one listing the sample(s) and below this, a table listing the water chemistry results associated with the selected sample. You can sort the sample results table by chemical code, chemical name, analyte group or value by clicking the relevant column heading.

  • Downloads: The Water Chemistry download option now includes all available water chemistry data.

  • Known issue: There is a known issue with scrolling tables in the Well Details view. For a table with a scroll bar, if you scroll down and then attempt to return to the top of the table, the scroller skips the first row. This is a browser issue and we are investigating a solution. In the mean time, you can return to the top row of the table by using the Refresh feature in your browser, e.g. press F5 or click the Refresh button. 

If you experience difficulties with using Groundwater Data after a new release, we recommend that you first clear your browser history and try again. Browser history is usually found by selecting Options on the Tools menu. If the difficulties persist, or you want to report a fault, Contact Us.
