Rainwater harvesting system data inventory
Thank you for participating!
The purpose of this survey is to put as much of the available information on rainwater harvesting systems in one place. The results can be a powerful tool for showing how common rainwater harvesting systems are, where they are used, and how they are used. You can see a summary of current results (updated periodically) at
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1fQvGtIcQR8O5318HJh8vK-0KD81TRxjR5uhttNNNN-I/edit?usp=sharing
. The map of systems is available at
