Crowdsourced Recorder

Thank you for taking an interest in our project. Across the US, low head dams have been constructed over the last two centuries to provide water, power and flood control. Many of these are silent hazards that contribute to accidental drownings each year. Our project is to identify low head dams across the US so that they can be managed and properly maintained.

Over the next few pages, we hope to enlist your help in this effort. This web app will help you mark the location of low head dams and also upload pictures of them to the project team. This crowdsourced effort will help populate a nation-wide inventory.
