Welcome to Defra Data Services Forum

Our Hydrology Data Explorer app has been updated.  Changes implemented in the latest release are outlined below.

1. More data – the most important change

• Almost double the number of sites with daily mean flow (just short of 1,000 now).
• Over double the number of sites in the south west with real time flow data (now around 150)
• A small number of groundwater level sites (just short of 50).

2. On the initial map based user interface

• Enhanced search function (now includes river name and grid references). Key for mobile users who do not have the map functionality.  
• Filtering of sites based on type (groundwater, flow, real time flow)

3. On the station page

• Key statistics including latest flow now appear at the top of the page (key for mobile users)

• Enhanced meta-data including key links on the right

• Enhanced graphs which show periods of poor quality data highlighted using the orange bar below.

• A table view option to help us meet accessibility guidelines
• Improved download clarity
