The DNREC Division of Water uses various digital tools to share data with the public about the work of the Division and the status of the Delaware water resources it helps protect and manage.
Some tools are managed by DNREC, others by the Delaware Department of Technology (DTI) and some by other partner agencies such as the Department of Health and Social Services. These tools include databases and data-viewing tools, geographic information systems with mapped spatial data, the Delaware Open Data Portal and other systems.
