In hydrogeologic investigations, water table elevations measured at sparsely distributed monitoring wells are used to interpolate the water table surface for a field site. Ground penetrating radar is one non-invasive technique which have been used to estimate water table elevations between monitoring wells. The accuracy of these estimates is effected by numerous sources of error, including surface elevations, GPR wave velocity, spatial velocity variations, capillary rise estimates and the time sampling interval. We have identified and quantified these uncertainties at two sites. When the sources of error are minimized, the uncertainty in water table elevation estimates from GPR data is ±0.10 to 0.15 m. At a third site, we were unable to obtain a reflection from the water table on the GPR sections. However, a non-linear, inverse relationship between the depth to the brackish water table and the apparent conductivity values measured with a Geonics EM-31 system was found, showing that the unsaturated zone has a conductivity of approximately 6 mS/m. Therefore, poor GPR data quality at this site cannot be attributed to the conductivity of the unsaturated zone.
