Vattenwebb: A Transparent Service to Support Decision Makers in Achieving Improved Water Status

• The vattenwebb.smhi.se service provides simulated as well as measured data on water flow and water quality for Sweden. The available data is used by the water authorities and decision makers in Sweden. The development of the site has been driven by the needs of the users and resulting in a site that is very appreciated by its users. An important aim in the development has been to make the data transparent for the end users, i.e. to explain the model assumptions and data quality in a way that is easy accessible. Therefore the site contains explanations about the model setup, how this data has been computed and information about the performance of the model. In this paper we will describe the service and its features with an emphasis on features used for achieving transparency
