Water Features: An IoW Blog

How a Nascent IoW Gave Rise to the

State-of-the-Science in Sensor Data Sharing


Data producers willing to share their data are the foundation of the Internet of Water, but first and foremost, that data must serve the needs of the data producer.


Consider Ed McCoy’s challenge. As a fly fishing guide in Michigan, he has to make decisions every day on where to take clients based on the water level along the river, but visiting those sites takes time that could better be spent fishing. The solution was real-time monitoring equipment to relay water level to the Monitor My Watershed Data Sharing Portal, allowing Ed to save time and make informed decisions.


Or take researcher Adam Gold’s challenge of timing his stormwater sampling in North Carolina around runoff events that are sudden and hard to predict. The real-time, wireless surveillance of water levels provided by Monitor My Watershed helped him determine when to collect samples.


Monitor My Watershed is a water quality data sharing portal that enables users to continuously stream real-time in-situ sensor data and visualize that data through a web application. This free and open-source platform has powerful advantages for researchers, students, community scientists, and more.
