The DWER Water Information Sites dataset lists monitoring locations (sites) where surface water and groundwater data are collected to assess the quality and quantity of state water resources. This monitoring supports a comprehensive understanding of the state's water assets and underpins evidence-based decision-making for both regulatory and resource management purposes. Please note that the dataset presents only summary-level attribute information for each site. It does not include all available data, which may encompass individual measurements such as water depth, stream height, water quality, rainfall, and bore details including construction, lithology, and stratigraphy. For access to detailed data, please visit the Water Information Reporting (WIR) system. (https://wir.water.wa.gov.au/).

This dataset is under review, please contact DWER for access to updated version. This dataset is a catalogue of current & historic boundaries of Water Allocation Plans and Statements and associated attributes. Each boundary indicates the area covered by the plan or statement. Water Allocation Plans may also be known as Water Management Plans. This dataset is intended to aid in water resource management.

This dataset and the accompanying Data Series report was created to assist in analysis and interpretation of water-quality data provided by the U.S. Geological Survey, National Stream Quality Accounting Network (NASQAN) and the National Monitoring Network (NMN). The report describes the methods used to develop the geospatial data which was primarily derived from the National Watershed Boundary Dataset (WBD12). The geospatial data contains polygon shapefiles of basin boundaries for 33 NASQAN and 5 NMN stations. In addition, 30 polygon shapefiles of the closed and noncontributing basins contained within the NASQAN or NMN boundaries where applicable are included. Also included is a point shapefile of the NASQAN and NMN gaging stations and associated basin and station attributes. The basin boundaries included in this dataset are for those sites implemented under the October 2007 design for the 5-years from 2008-2013 (http://water.usgs.gov/nasqan/).

The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), in cooperation with the Missouri Department of Natural Resources (MDNR), collects data pertaining to the surface-water resources of Missouri. These data are collected as part of the Missouri Ambient Water-Quality Monitoring Network (AWQMN) and are stored and maintained by the USGS National Water Information System (NWIS) database. These data constitute a valuable source of reliable, impartial, and timely information for developing an improved understanding of the water resources of the State. Water-quality data collected between water years 1993 and 2017 were analyzed for long term trends and the network was investigated to identify data gaps or redundant data to assist MDNR on how to optimize the network in the future. This is a companion data release product to the Scientific Investigation Report: Richards, J.M., and Barr, M.N., 2021, General water-quality conditions, long-term trends, and network analysis at selected sites within the Ambient Water-Quality Monitoring Network in Missouri, water years 1993–2017: U.S. Geological Survey Scientific Investigations Report 2021–5079, 75 p., https://doi.org/10.3133/sir20215079.
