National Integrated Water Information System - Drought status and management
The Drought Status and Management information system is designed to provide regular overview and outlook of drought status in South Africa. The Drought Status and Management dashboard currently integrates rainfall, river flow, dam level and groundwater level data as the main indicators for generating drought status information. Other indicators such as vegetation condition will be added in future.
