One way for concerned citizens to drive change is to have facts on hand. Facts, in this case are data on river flows, dams storage levels, dam water utilization, distribution of river water, river water quality, basin rainfall trends and the various pressures the rivers face like quarrying, industrial pollution, sewage, sand mining and so forth, at the river basin level.

To that end, we intend to spearhead a bottom-up citizen initiative to build a sensible and closer to reality River Basin Information System, by sourcing and analysing data from government, independent scientific studies, media, google earth engine, and ground-truthing for the rivers of Karnataka. We also intend to present this data and information, in an easily understandable format to assist in river conservation.
