DataStream’s New How-To Video Series
February 9, 2021
DataStream’s new how-to video series provides guidance on using the open-access platform to publish and explore water monitoring data. The first four videos walk data stewards through various steps of the process, beginning with how to upload and update datasets:
- Uploading your data – New Dataset
- Updating your dataset – Add New Data
- Updating your dataset – Modify Existing Data
- Updating your dataset – Edit Metadata
These videos can be used alongside DataStream’s Upload Guide, found on our Resources page.
A data steward account is required to upload and publish data on DataStream. If you have a monitoring program with results you would like to share on DataStream, please contact us.
