NJ DEP Geology

No authnj-dep-geology

New Jersey Geological & Water Survey GIS (NJDEP ArcGIS, mapsdep.nj.gov). No auth. NE-US geology, aquifers, structural geology, recharge, and the 36 oil & gas exploration wells ever drilled in NJ. Two MapServers: Geology (bedrock/surficial geology, bedrock + surficial aquifer extents, faults, folds, recharge + sole-source aquifers, exploration wells) and Environmental_mon_gw (ambient groundwater-quality stations: metals/ions/nutrients/pesticides/radionuclides/VOC + USGS NWIS). searchExplorationWells/searchGroundwaterQuality return records or format:'geojson'; getBedrockGeology/getAquifers/getFaultsAndFolds/getGroundwaterRechargeAreas return polygon/line GeoJSON. Faults and recharge are dense — pass a bbox/near.
