New Mexico Water Watch is a water resources application focused on data interpretation, designed to elucidate trends, rates, historical context, and impacts. The app provides maps covering statewide reservoirs, groundwater, rivers, drought, and snowpack, along with weekly briefings and accessible feature explanation pages. Users can explore changes in storage levels, aquifers, and policy milestones via a timeline slider spanning 1990 to 2026, and learn about the history and current state of acequias community channels. All measurement data are annotated with source types (e.g., provisional, reported, modeled, etc.) to ensure transparency and accuracy. The app employs a one-time payment model with no subscriptions, ads, or tracking features, respecting user privacy.
