IGRAC has recently launched the GGMN - Groundwater Monitoring app. This app enables users to georeference and register groundwater monitoring stations and groundwater level monitoring data, with the option of submitting the collected data to the Global Groundwater Monitoring Network (GGMN) Portal. The app is now available for Android devices and can be downloaded here.
One year after publication, the book 'Advances in Groundwater Governance' with IGRAC contribution has been made open source. This book provides water industry professionals, decision-makers and local stakeholders with a suite of solutions for a heuristic approach to managing this extremely important resource. It is now available for download.
At present 366 Transboundary Aquifers (TBAs) and 226 Transboundary Groundwater Bodies - as defined in the European Union Water Framework Directive - have been delineated (IGRAC and UNESCO-IHP, 2015). Progress in research and efforts towards joint management of Transboundary aquifers are steadily increasing, although there are still few TBAs which have been studied in detail or which are covered by some form of international agreement.
