About Us
Our Mission
The California Water Data Consortium is an independent, nonprofit organization that supports data-informed water management decisions in California in the face of climate change and other pressures on water resources. We amplify efforts to improve water data infrastructure by creating a neutral organizational space to build trust and facilitate collaboration across sectors.
Our Purpose
The California Water Data Consortium provides an independent space for ongoing collaboration and sustained engagement between state agencies, water agencies, industry, NGOs, Tribes, academia and others. We work collaboratively to increase access to high quality, comprehensive and interoperable data for a more resilient water future for all Californians. Learn more about the Consortium on our FAQs.
