Watershed Information Site
 

This is your gateway to the most complete and current collection of technical information on the creeks, streams and rivers in the Rideau watershed.

You can view detailed historical and current data on many aspects of river health from water quality and flow levels to aquatic bug populations and shoreline characteristics. Or you can review more general watershed health summaries in the Watershed Planning area.

Click on this icon and tour through the watershed using the Watershed Information System. Using our information viewer, you will be able to zoom in and out of watershed maps and locate sampling points and stored data important to you. You will be viewing "geospatial" data (information taken at a specific place on the map).
