Swan Canning Catchment Water Quality Monitoring Data for 2019

The Department of Biodiversity, Conservation and Attractions conducts routine water quality monitoring in the Swan Canning catchment. Data from the 2019 monitoring program is stored in the Water Information Network database and used to assess system response to management actions and report against nutrient reduction targets. The dataset is publicly available via the Water Information Reporting portal.

Use Cases

• Modeling nutrient levels and pollution trends based on routine monitoring data.
• Assessing the effectiveness of catchment management actions based on system response data.
• Reporting against government nutrient reduction targets using the collected water quality information.

Strengths

• Data is produced by a government department (DBCA) for official management and reporting purposes.
• Publicly accessible via a dedicated reporting portal (Water Information Reporting portal).

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
