Water Data Online

Abstract

Water Data Online provides free access to nationally consistent, current and historical water data (and related information) that is collected by the Bureau of Meteorology under the Water Regulations (2008). It allows users to view and download standardised data and reports.

Watercourse level and discharge (Water Regulations, Category 1) time series data collected from approximately 3500 measurement stations across Australia is currently available on Water Data Online. This data has generally been supplied by lead water agencies.

The Bureau will continue to work to expand the number of water information categories and water monitoring stations presented. For more information refer to the Water Data Online information sheet

The time period over which data is available varies according to how long the stations have been operating. The period of record for some locations starts in the late 19th century. Water Data Online does not display near real time, or flood data. Water Data Online also contains historical data from some stations that are no longer being operated. Such data can provide valuable insight into environmental changes and help build a more comprehensive national picture of our water resources.
