This Water Monitoring Information Portal (WMIP) service provides water monitoring data over Queensland, including archived time series surface water, groundwater, rainfall and water quality data, as well as discrete water quality data for water monitoring projects.

To meet Quality Management System requirements, the Department of Local Government, Water and Volunteers (the Department) undertakes reviews of its water monitoring networks every 3 to 5 years to ensure they remain fit-for-purpose and meet the primary requirements as described in the Water Act 2000. The recommendations from network reviews are incorporated into the annual updating of approved network lists as budget and operational requirements allow.

Using this service you can find:

• Latest river height and stream flow values from the Department's water monitoring stations throughout Queensland*
• Historic streamflow data from decommissioned river and stream monitoring stations
• Groundwater levels from the Department's monitoring bores that are equipped with data loggers*
• The Department's water monitoring network site lists
• WMIP REST API Documentation and Guide
• Discrete Water Quality Data for all monitoring projects and sites
• The Water Monitoring Hydrology Archive Data, available on the Queensland Government Open Data Portal, includes archived time series surface water, groundwater, rainfall and water quality data, as well as discrete water quality data for water monitoring projects.

* Latest instantaneous and latest daily values are unverified data

For the latest information about stream and river heights for flood warning purposes, refer to the Australian Government Bureau of Meteorology website

At approved network sites, information delivered via the WMIP is subject to the Department's processes and procedures used to monitor the State’s natural water resources that have been reviewed and certified as complying with the requirements of ISO 9001:2015 by BSI under certificate number FS 605172. This provides confidence in the quality of water information provided from approved network sites.
