The Dashboard
ADWR has created an interactive dashboard which stakeholders may use to help guide their understanding of how different variables could shape the impact of an Ag-to-Urban program on groundwater supplies. ADWR has also made the dashboard’s underlying data set publicly available at this link here.
The dashboard is embedded below and may be accessed in a larger format here.
