Learn About Geoconnex Explorer and What’s Next
After years of development, the Internet of Water Coalition is excited to showcase Geoconnex Explorer, the first public access point into the Geoconnex system. The Explorer opens up access data from waterways across the contiguous United States, making it easier than ever for users to find critical information from trusted sources like the United States Geological Survey and Water Quality Portal. As the first public-facing application built on the Geoconnex system, the Explore demonstrates how water data can become discoverable, usable, and connected for all.
In this webinar, key developers from the Center for Geospatial Solutions — the team behind Geoconnex Explorer and stewards of the IoW Coalition — to dive into the tool. We'll discuss how it was built, highlight current capabilities, share what's next for the broader Geoconnex system, and of course, answer your questions.
Join us September 15 at 2pm ET for the inside scoop on Geoconnex Explorer!
