Concept
FutureWater provides high quality research and consulting services throughout the world, combining scientific research with practical solutions for water resources management. WaterMaps is the web portal where FutureWater brings together its geospatial data products derived from numerous projects and (operational) services from around the globe. It offers a steadily growing collection of gridded outputs from a wide range of water-related projects and services, that can be interactively explored by browsing the map. The geospatial analysis and information products provided by WaterMaps are used to assess impacts related to floods, droughts, irrigation, hydropower, and food production.
