This layer contains points showing the location of groundwater bores in the Water Measurement Information System (WMIS) that have recorded co-ordinates.
WMIS is the primary access point to search, discover, access and download surface water and groundwater monitoring data collected by DEPI and its partners. WMIS contains data from a range of sources, primarily from the registration of bores requiring a bore construction licence (Water Act, 1989), as well as groundwater level and groundwater chemisty data. For more detailed information on individual bores, the user is referred to the WMIS site at http://data.water.vic.gov.au/monitoring.htm.

Dataset Status:
Incomplete. Not all bores in WMIS have accurate coordinate information. In addition, WMIS only contains records where a Bore Completion Report has been entered.
