Local governments can use it for forecasting floods in their areas and planning emergency response to the flooding. State governments can take the information into account when making water allocation decisions during a drought. Environmental groups can use the data to monitor ecosystem health.\r\n\r\nAnd the general public can use it to figure out where the river conditions are good for fishing, kayaking, or other recreational activities, Siegel said.\r\n\r\nThe Live Stream Gauges map receives data from 15,000 gauges operated by the United States Geological Survey (USGS), the US Army Corps of Engineers, the State of Washington Department of Ecology, Maricopa County, Arizona, and San Joaquin County, California. Creating this map is the first step toward building an international map. The amount of data available depends on participation by contributors.\r\n\r\nYou can contribute too.
