Groundwater Level Baseline May 2040 F Miami-Dade County
About This Dataset
This dataset shows where groundwater sits beneath Miami-Dade in May 2040 based on U.S. Geological Survey modeling, assuming no additional sea level rise beyond 2009 levels. It's critical for understanding how our aquifer will behave in the future, which affects drinking water availability, building foundations, and infrastructure planning as our region grows and changes.
Why This Matters
- A water utility planner determining future well depths and water supply capacity for neighborhoods expanding over the next 15 years
- A developer or engineer designing building foundations and drainage systems for new construction, needing to know how high groundwater will be
- A city manager assessing which areas might face saltwater intrusion or flooding risks from rising groundwater in coming decades
