Deltares has developed a Water Quality App for smartphones to enable citizens to measure and share water quality measurements. The project’s aim is to enable farmers to participate in the collection of water quality measurements in order to establish the relationship between different agricultural practices and water quality. This requires a method that allows participating farmers to both collect measurements and share this information easily. We hope to achieve this by collecting water quality data by using test strips and sending the results via smartphone.
Goals
- Enable farmers and other citizens to measure and share water quality measurements
- Collect water quality data by using test strips and a smartphone
- Establish the relationship between different agricultural practices and water quality

Results are visualized directly in a web-based viewer. This viewer is easy to use and suitable for desktops, tablets, and smartphones. Measurements for specific user groups are also visualized in the Delta Data Viewer.
The flexible design makes it easy to develop specific views for certain catchment areas and/or user groups. The data can be visualized in different ways and the user can choose between different background maps.
