Inside Georgia’s public well records
Household coverage is not provided. These records provide agricultural context. This source does not provide a household-well inventory.
These are retrieved public records, shown so you can see the identifiers, available values and gaps before running your own lookup. They are regional examples, not a statewide sample or a prediction for a property.
| Public record ID | Published locality | Published use / type | Status / location quality | Recorded depth | Reported rate |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| GA0013565 ↗ | Not reported | Irrigation (IR) | ActiveLocation quality not reported | 120 ft | Not reported |
| GA0014807 ↗ | Not reported | Irrigation (IR) | ActiveLocation quality not reported | 500 ft | Not reported |
Depths are converted from the lookup’s normalized meters to feet. Reported rate can represent yield, a pump-test rate or pump capacity depending on the source; these values are historical and are not interchangeable. A source zero can be a placeholder or a reported result: verify its meaning in the original file. “Not reported” means no comparable value was retained, not zero and not proof that the original file lacks all information.
No comparable reported rate is available in these examples; a supply estimate cannot be calculated from them.
How to verify a Georgia record
Read the published irrigation classification before using a point as context. These agricultural records are not a household-well inventory and cannot identify the well serving a home.
Open Georgia Published Water Well Records ↗ and search for the identifiers above. Compare the original filing, location method and well type with seller documents and a physical well identifier.
What is in the imported subset
The version imported on 2026-10-11 contains 14,998 records; 14,989 contain a retained completed-depth value. The source collection date is 2022-09-16.
Counts describe this filtered historical import, not every well in the state. A source check today does not update the age of those underlying records.

Georgia Published Water Well Records
USGWD / HydroShare, compiled from public state agency records
These records provide agricultural context. This source does not provide a household-well inventory.
What you can find in Georgia well records
Available fields vary by individual filing, but the Georgia integration can surface:
- mapped location
- published record identifier
- source well type
- recorded well depth where reported
- construction year where reported
How to search the Georgia well map and read a well log
- Enter the full property address above to locate the property and open nearby mapped records.
- Compare record identifiers, well type, completion date and distance before deciding which wells are relevant.
- Open the public source below to trace an original well log or completion report where the agency publishes one. A mapped summary may omit details from that document.
- Verify the actual property well with the seller, record identifiers and an on-site inspection; nearby records alone cannot identify it.
How to use the record before buying a property
Use the public record as a starting point, then verify important property decisions against the original source and current on-site conditions.
Start with the address search, compare the closest records and their distances, then open the public source before treating a record as the subject property's well. If water quality or current performance matters, use current testing and an on-site well inspection.

Public Georgia source
WellLookup is independent of USGWD / HydroShare, compiled from public state agency records. The underlying public source is Georgia Published Water Well Records. WellLookup adds address search, nearby-record comparison and property-focused reporting; it preserves the published source values.

Frequently asked questions
Yes. Enter a street address and WellLookup will search nearby mapped records from the supported Georgia source.
Not necessarily. Location precision varies, so verify identifiers, documents and the physical well before relying on the match.
The $29.99 USD property report organizes the available evidence, nearby comparisons, source limitations and follow-up questions into one PDF.
