About This Data

All data is sourced from official government agencies and updated regularly. Reservoir levels come from the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation (USBR) and California Department of Water Resources (CDEC). Snowpack data is provided by USDA NRCS SNOTEL stations. Aquifer depletion estimates are based on NASA GRACE satellite data and USGS groundwater monitoring. Data accuracy depends on source availability and may be delayed during maintenance periods.
