Description: This is a map of Florida showing the estimated yield of fresh-water wells, current to 1975. The following is taken from the article "Estimated Yield of Fresh-Water Wells in Florida" by Charles A. Pascale — "Well yield is an important aspect in designing ground-water supply systems and planning for water supply development." As shown in the key, the color codes represent the amount of gallons of fresh-water yield. Orange is 2,000 gal/min, blue is 1,000 gal/min, green is 500 gal/min, yellow is 250 gal/min and pink is less than 250 gal/min. Please see the article Estimated Yield of Fresh-Water Wells in Florida by Charles A. Pascale for more information.
