Water quality non-detection results are shown on the graphs at the minimum detectable amount. For example, E.coli not detected means less than 1.6 CFU. This is shown as 1.6 CFU.
All times are NZDT, this means they are adjusted for daylight savings if it’s in place.

Some pages offer a second dropdown menu to select the measurement.
Selecting sites on the map
Click on the spot on the map to select that site. This selection only applies to the current report.
You can select more than one site by holding the Ctrl key while selecting on your additional choices. This works in the dropdown menu or on the map.
To see more information
Hover over a site on the map and you will see more information about the location.
Hover over a result on the map to obtain the result of that measurement.
Changing the page appearance and exporting data
Hover over a chart, and in the top right corner there are 3 dots - for more options.
Here you can choose to see the graph data as a table. If you see a blue "i" like above, it means there is too much data for the graph to show all of it. If this happens, choose "Export data" (under more options) to download a data file which includes all data including what can't be displayed in the graph or table.
Beside the 3 dots is a "Focus mode" button, which enlarges the chart to fill the space.
