Model My Watershed

Model My Watershed is an online tool designed to help users explore human impacts on their local watersheds. It provides capabilities to analyze mapped watershed data, visualize monitoring information, and run simulations. Users can select an area of interest and delve into various map layers, including land cover, hydrologic soil groups, and permitted point source discharges, to understand natural and human-influenced features.

The platform also integrates with monitoring data, allowing users to search for existing data in various repositories or share their own monitoring data to view within WikiWatershed. This feature supports a comprehensive view of water quality conditions.

Furthermore, Model My Watershed enables users to run simulations to compare the impacts of different conservation and development scenarios on water quality. The results of these models can be shared with others, fostering collaborative analysis and planning for watershed health.
