The water volume in small reservoirs is significantly more susceptible to seasonal and climate variability than larger reservoirs, leaving communities that rely on them more vulnerable to water scarcity and food insecurity, according to new research.
We learned from end-users that many use cases require an open and programmable interface to our data. Researchers and users that wish to conduct their own analysis or build their own application or dashboard on top of GWW can now start developing. Our first dataset is now entirely accessible via an Application Programming Interface (API).
This blog post touches on predicting water availability using Global Water Watch storage data. This is the result of a collaborative effort between Delft University of Technology, Deltares, and the Red Cross 510.
Here are four ways we hope Global Water Watch can support collaboration and peacebuilding activities between countries in transboundary basins.
According to data from Global Water Watch, reservoirs in France, Germany, Greece, northern Italy, the Netherlands, Portugal, Spain, and the United Kingdom shrunk to unprecedented levels in 2022.
