Overview

Rivermap is a tool for European kayakers and canoeists that presents up-to-date information on the paddling conditions of various river sections. It combines an informative map overiew with the ability to access detailed information for each specific section. Below is a stripped-down example.

Example: Upper Inn

(or view The Map)

Section respesentation

Lines between put-in and take-out points symbolize each section.

Water conditions

Section water levels are colour coded on the following scale, where possible:


NW: low water, the minimum needed
MW: medium water, consistent with the grade

The qualifier 'Indirect calibration!' designates a guage that may be only loosely or occasionally correlated with current levels on the section in question. Indirect effects such as heavy upstream rainfall, snow melt, or transient hydro releases may dominate the paddling conditions. Always do your homework.

Warnings

The measurement data are unvalidated and provisional.
The classification is only a rough idea of the situation. Always check the current flow conditions before starting a trip and make additional clarifications (guide book, experts, inspection).
The decision to get on the water is always taken at your own risk, and all liability is disclaimed.
