Water Management and Utility Websites and Business Applications

California is an agricultural leader that depends on water for irrigation. At the same time, California’s unique geography and climate foster a diverse ecosystem that relies on water.

Our water system is a complex relationship between nature and human-made structures that move and store water. The Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta is the heart of California’s water system. It is the source of water for the State Water Project and a perfect example of these competing needs.

Climate change has had a profound impact on California’s water resources. Even though California is prone to periodic floods, drought is a reoccurring feature of California’s climate impacting not only water supply but also water quality. This is why water conservation became a routine part of the California lifestyle.

SymSoft has worked with the state, regional, and local agencies and organizations to address these issues through conservation micro-sites, public information portals, data storytelling dashboards, and online public participation tools.
