Great Lakes DataStream, an open access hub for sharing water data, was successfully released last year and currently contains over eight million open data points collected by 47 monitoring groups from across the Great Lakes-St. Lawrence River Basin.
Great Lakes DataStream provides a centralized hub for Quebec’s freshwater data to be stored, compared, and used to protect our waters. It is the fourth DataStream hub, joining Mackenzie DataStream, Atlantic DataStream, and Lake Winnipeg DataStream.
We can’t think of a better place to celebrate DataStream’s debut in Quebec than at the region’s first gathering of participatory science leaders, whose mission is to strengthen community-based water monitoring initiatives in the province.

Climate change is accelerating. And smart responses depend on good data.
In watersheds across Canada, temperatures are rising, rainfall patterns are shifting, and storms are hitting harder and more frequently. We’re seeing more droughts, floods, runoff and algal blooms. And the pace of climate change just keeps accelerating.

Five ways open data helps protect freshwater
It’s Open Data Day, a chance to celebrate open access data from all over the world!
