River flow data
View water levels at over 160 river and lake sites in Waitaha/Canterbury, from the Waiau Toa/Clarence River in the north to the Waitaki River in the south.
We measure river flow at over 135 of these sites and this information is combined with water level data to produce continuous flow records. We report this alongside data from a number of other sites recorded by partner agencies such as Earth Sciences New Zealand (ESNZ) and Christchurch City Council (CCC).
