Updated subsidence maps released with standardized legends

Arizona Dept. of Water Resources has updated all the land subsidence maps on ADWR’s website so that they are all using the same color scale.  Project manager Brian Conway expects this will help eliminate any confusion that people are having when comparing maps for one or more area and when looking at different periods of time.  There are 213 land subsidence maps available for download as pdfs.  [Right, interactive subsidence map viewer.  Yellow boxes outline basins with maps available.

He has also added land subsidence rate maps for each land subsidence feature and there are a total of 45 land subsidence rate maps available for download.  The land subsidence rate maps also use a same color interval.
