iPhone app The Water Reporter

Water Reporter users discover, track, and examine pollution issues that threaten ecosystem and human health via user-initiated monitoring programs.

Water quality impacts our daily life and the health of our natural world.
Addressing pollution threats can feel daunting: pollution sources often elude even the best scientists, and solutions take time and resources to make an impact.
Despite all of the obstacles of combating threats to our watersheds, the environmental community is up to the challenge!

With Water Reporter weve created a platform where everyone participating in environmental monitoring can come together to collect geolocated data to shed light on watershed quality issues and publish the results as data-driven solutions to pollution problems.

Water Reporter is built and maintained by The Commons, a 501c(3) organization creating meaningful software solutions for the environmental sector.
