The Kansas Geological Survey's High Plains Aquifer Interactive Atlas provides a large amount of information on the High Plains Aquifer underneath western and central Kansas, which provides 70-80% of the water used in Kansas. Features of this interactive map include:

• Annual water level measurements for hundreds of wells across the state, with records for many wells going back to the 1960s
• Continuous water level data (reported every two hours) for three index wells distributed across western Kansas
• Extent of the saturated portion of the High Plains Aquifer beneath Kansas
• Areas of very low saturated thickness

Data for all wells can be downloaded for further use and analysis.
