Types of water observations

Types of water observations

You can make different types of water observations. Choose the fitting category:

  • VIRTUAL STAFF GAUGE: Water level observations if there is no staff gauge (ruler) installed in the stream.
  • PHYSICAL STAFF GAUGE: Water level observations based on a staff gauge (ruler) that is already installed in the stream. 
  • SOIL MOISTURE: Moisture status for any unsealed surface.
  • PLASTIC POLLUTION: Observations of macro-plastic in a waterbody or on the shore. 
  • TEMPORARY STREAM: The flow state of streams that sometimes dry up.
  • STREAM TYPE: General information for a watercourse, including information on the perceived water quality.
