On August 22, 2024, RSE “Kazhydromet” opened access to the interactive map “Hydrological Monitoring”, which provides detailed information on the current state of water bodies in Kazakhstan, Zakon.kz reports.

The release states that the data in the section comes from the hydrological network of the RSE “Kazhydromet”, which includes 377 observation points, including: 329 river, 38 lake and 10 sea posts and stations.

As the Hydrometeorological Center emphasized, in addition to monitoring information, the map includes the following modules:

  • “Hydrological forecasts”, where the map displays the predicted flood volumes for lowland rivers and the expected average water flow during the growing season for mountain rivers and their norms.
