Groundwater Pesticide Monitoring Wells in Québec Watersheds

Government and Municipalities of Québec data shows the location of wells sampled for pesticides near target crop environments. Sampling occurred between 1999 and 2024, with stations grouped by watershed.

Use Cases

• Map well locations by watershed to analyze spatial patterns of potential pesticide contamination
• Link sampling data to available study reports for temporal analysis of pesticide levels from 1999 to 2024
• Analyze groundwater monitoring data relative to target crop environments to assess agricultural impact

Strengths

• Data covers a 25-year temporal range from 1999 to 2024
• Provides geographic locations of sampling wells for spatial analysis
• Includes links to official reports for contextual data verification

Limitations

• Sample data and specific pesticide concentration measurements are unavailable in this metadata
• The dataset's size, row count, and column structure are unknown
• Metadata description was machine-translated, which may introduce ambiguity
