DataStream’s New How-To Video Series
February 9, 2021
DataStream’s new how-to video series provides guidance on using the open-access platform to publish and explore water monitoring data. The first four videos walk data stewards through various steps of the process, beginning with how to upload and update datasets:
- Uploading your data – New Dataset
- Updating your dataset – Add New Data
- Updating your dataset – Modify Existing Data
- Updating your dataset – Edit Metadata
These videos can be used alongside DataStream’s Upload Guide, found on our Resources page.
A data steward account is required to upload and publish data on DataStream. If you have a monitoring program with results you would like to share on DataStream, please contact us.

Community science on the agenda in the Great Lakes
Since DataStream began in 2016, we have focused on amplifying the important work of community-based monitoring groups. We’re excited that community science has been a central theme at the many gatherings we’ve attended over the past few months throughout the Great Lakes region.
Paddling and protecting the Madawaska
For the past four years, Madawaska Kanu Centre’s office team have been tracking the river’s water quality. Once a month, unless the conditions are too icy, they measure parameters like pH levels, dissolved oxygen and transparency.
