California Water Open Data Initiative

The Issue

Description

There are five critical metrics that are currently missing and we need better data collection process to increase the quality.

Why
Well Drilling Logs: Can be used to predict how groundwater conditions will change under different conditions

Groundwater Elevations: Early warning sign for potential problems

Production Metering: Provides a status of groundwater supplies, adjust policies and practices proactively

Water Quality: Identify potential contaminants sources

Groundwater Models: Prediction for groundwater conditions + more cohesive basin-wide management
