Everything You Need to Manage Recreation Status

Purpose-built for water trails, river corridors, and parks. One product, one job, done better than anyone else.

Corridor & Asset Management

Define your water trail, river corridor, or park assets with a structured schema. Track access points, hazards, segments, and more with full attribution and versioning.

Status Workflow Engine

Publish closures, advisories, hazards, and condition updates with confidence. Built-in verification states, urgency levels, and conflict detection keep your information trustworthy.

Public Publishing Layer

Branded public pages with color-coded maps. Embeddable widgets for your website. Mobile-optimized, shareable URLs that keep paddlers informed.

Trust & Accountability

Full provenance on every update. Know who published what, when, and why. Role-based access control and audit logs for complete transparency.

Organization Admin

Invite team members with Admin, Editor, or Viewer roles. Configure approval workflows for government compliance. Manage your organization settings in one place.

Data Import & Export

Bring your existing data via CSV, GeoJSON, or KML. Export anytime. Webhooks for real-time integration with your systems.

How It Works

From Setup to Published in Minutes

Driftwise is designed for trail managers, not GIS experts. Simple workflows that respect your time.

01

Set Up Your Corridor

Define your water trail or park assets using our guided setup wizard. Import existing data or draw directly on the map. Add access points, segments, and hazard locations.

Corridor Intelligence

Real-Time Hydrological Awareness

Combine in-situ USGS gauge data with NOAA's National Water Model to get a complete picture of conditions along your corridors — from current flows to 5-day forecasts.

USGS Stream Gauges

Real-time observations

USGS stream gauge data showing discharge, stage, water temperature, and water quality parameters with interactive hydrograph
  • Discharge, stage, and water temperature
  • Water quality: pH, dissolved oxygen, turbidity, conductivity
  • RFC-calibrated forecasts where available

National Water Model

Continuous coverage + forecasts

NWM model metrics showing flow conditions, velocity, and forecast trends across corridor reaches
  • Flow and velocity for every reach — no gauge required
  • Percentile-based flow status (normal, above, below)
  • 5-day forecast trends with model confidence

Make data-driven decisions about conditions, closures, and advisories.
