Public Prototype

Clear Lake Watch

A late prototype / early MVP dashboard concept for organizing public lake-health context, cyanotoxin-related reports, watershed inputs, and bloom-risk indicators across the Upper, Lower, and Oaks arms of Clear Lake using reviewed public snapshot files.

Snapshot Status

Public Data Snapshot, Not Advisory Guidance

This dashboard summarizes reviewed public snapshot files for research and situational awareness. It is not recreation, emergency, regulatory, or public-health guidance.

Portfolio Signal

What This Project Demonstrates

Clear Lake Watch is best reviewed as evidence of environmental data systems work: integrating public sources, preserving spatial uncertainty, and communicating limits clearly.

Environmental Data Integration

Combines FHABS, USGS, OpenStreetMap, public snapshot files, and reviewed public-source weather context into one static review surface.

GIS And Spatial Review

Uses shoreline geometry, lake-arm grouping, site-registry records, map trust filters, and needs-review status to keep spatial uncertainty visible.

Responsible Public Communication

Separates reports, observations, derived summaries, source freshness, and public-health boundaries so the dashboard does not read as official guidance.

Research-To-Product Workflow

Shows normalized exports, static deployment, validation checks, documentation, reviewer notes, and a bounded public backlog.

What The Public Snapshot Files Are Showing

Open-App Data QA Notices

Data QA notices are off. Enable notices to receive local snapshot-change notices while this app is open.

These are local browser notices only, not background emergency or official public-health notifications.

    This section is populated from local snapshot files generated from official public sources.

    Map Layer

    Recent Public Reports With Coordinates

    Markers are pulled from FHABS report coordinates, matched to the starter site registry when possible, and grouped to arms with reviewed assignments or documented fallbacks.

    Site Registry QA

    Current Marker Review Status

    Generated from the site-review queue so unresolved arm and landmark assignments stay visible before authoritative use.

    Use this filter to separate locally reviewed markers from provisional FHABS registry matches.

    Data Products

    Normalized Public Exports

    These generated files are designed to support the dashboard, public downloads, charting, and future machine-learning feature tables.

    Source Status

    Latest Refresh Manifest

    Source rows, observation dates, and generated output counts come from the public snapshot manifest.

    Files In This Public Snapshot

    Weather Context

    Shared Backbone Context Layer

    Weather context is designed as a separate public-safe export from the environmental monitoring backbone. It can provide rainfall, wind, heat, and station-health context without turning weather telemetry into lake-health claims.

    Reporting Activity

    Monitoring And Reporting Patterns

    These charts summarize public reporting activity and normalized observation coverage. They are not direct bloom-severity estimates and should not be read as public-health guidance.

    Analytics summary loading.

    FHABS Reporting Activity

    Annual Clear Lake Report Counts

    Derived Reporting pattern

    Higher counts can reflect monitoring intensity, public attention, or source availability, not necessarily worse bloom conditions.

    FHABS Advisory Labels

    Most Common Reported Categories

    Derived Reporting pattern

    Category mixes describe labels present in FHABS records; they do not replace official advisories or site-specific agency guidance.

    Observation Coverage

    Current Normalized Observation Series

    Observed Coverage summary

    Coverage shows which normalized series are available for the dashboard; it is a data-availability summary, not a lake-condition rating.

    Roadmap And Source Inventory Moved To Their Own Page

    Implementation phases, source inventory, MVP modules, guardrails, and forecasting roadmap now live on the project page so this dashboard can stay focused on current public situational awareness.
