Inside Indiana’s public well records
The statewide inventory includes directly located and estimated well locations, so proximity alone does not establish parcel association.
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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 179999 ↗ | MARION | Not reported | Status not reportedLocation quality not reported | 100 ft | 300 GPM |
| 180065 ↗ | MARION | Not reported | Status not reportedLocation quality not reported | Not reported | 0 in source (verify meaning) |
| 180075 ↗ | MARION | Not reported | Status not reportedLocation quality not reported | 95 ft | 275 GPM |
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.
How to verify a Indiana record
Use the DNR reference number to open the well report. Read the pumping duration with the reported pumping rate, and compare casing and bedrock depths before interpreting the construction.
Open Indiana 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.
Review method: up to three distinct public identifiers selected in returned distance order from an existing regional lookup, without selecting for an attractive depth or yield. Re-run the example lookup ↗ · How these reviews are prepared
Indiana Water Well Records
Indiana Department of Natural Resources
The statewide inventory includes directly located and estimated well locations, so proximity alone does not establish parcel association.
What you can find in Indiana well records
Available fields vary by individual filing, but the Indiana integration can surface:
- reference number
- well depth
- static water level
- pump rate
- completion date
- depth to bedrock
- casing details
- pump details
- county
- location type
- official report link
How to search the Indiana 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
Indiana has a large statewide inventory with useful construction and pumping fields. Keeping the location type visible makes those records much more useful for responsible property due diligence.
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.
Indiana coverage limitation
Indiana's mapped dataset includes both directly located wells and estimated locations. Many older or previously unlocated records are placed at PLSS-area centroids or geocoded from an address, so map proximity alone cannot establish a property-to-well match.
Public Indiana source
WellLookup is independent of Indiana Department of Natural Resources. The underlying public source is Indiana 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 Indiana 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.
