The Global Groundwater Quality Portal by IGRAC is a dedicated platform for sharing global maps and datasets related to groundwater quality. It brings together data and models developed by IGRAC and its international partners, including global assessments of groundwater contamination and occurrence of key elements such as arsenic, fluoride, PFAS, and salinity. The portal provides harmonized geospatial information that supports global and regional monitoring of groundwater quality, promotes data accessibility, and contributes to sustainable groundwater management worldwide. It is part of IGRAC’s mission to facilitate international information exchange and knowledge sharing on groundwater resources.

The MAR Portal contains the Global MAR Inventory, an inventory of over 1200 sites where Managed Aquifer Recharge is or has been implemented. The Global MAR Inventory includes information on site name, MAR type, year of scheme deployment, the source of infiltration water, the final use of abstracted water, as well as the main objectives of the project.

This dataset presents a MAR suitability map for Costa Rica, developed by Bonilla et al. (2016). The study ranks areas suitable for MAR through spreading methods based on hydrogeological aptitude, terrain slope, soil texture, and drainage network density. The dataset provides geospatial information that supports groundwater recharge planning, water resources management, and climate change adaptation in Costa Rica. It is part of the global collection of MAR suitability assessments compiled by IGRAC.

This dataset presents a MAR suitability map for Northern Australia, developed by CSIRO (2018). The study assesses opportunities for Managed Aquifer Recharge (MAR) in surficial aquifers to support agricultural development across the Fitzroy, Darwin, and Mitchell catchments. The analysis is based on the characteristics of surficial geology, topography, and modelled estimates of regolith thickness and soil permeability. The dataset provides geospatial information that can support sustainable water resource planning and agricultural water management in Northern Australia. It is part of the global collection of MAR suitability assessments compiled by IGRAC.

The Global Gravity-based Groundwater Product (G3P) provides groundwater storage anomalies (GWSA) from a cross-cutting combination of GRACE/GRACE-FO-based terrestrial water storage (TWS) and storage compartments of the water cycle (WSCs) that are part of the Copernicus portfolio. The data set comprises gridded anomalies of groundwater, TWS, and the WSCs glacier, snow, soil moisture and surface water bodies plus layers containing uncertainty information for the individual data products. All WSCs are spatially filtered with a Gaussian filter to be compatible with TWS. Spatial coverage is global, except Greenland and Antarctica, with 0.5-degree resolution. Temporal coverage is from April 2002 to September 2023 with monthly temporal resolution. Gridded data sets are available as NetCDF files containing variables for the parameter value as anomaly in mm equivalent water height and the parameter’s uncertainty as mm equivalent water height.

The latest version of the data is visualized at the GravIS portal: https://gravis.gfz-potsdam.de/gws. From GravIS, the data is also available as area averages for several large river basins and aquifers, as well as for climatically similar regions.

G3P was funded by the EU Horizon 2020 programme in response to the call LC-SPACE-04-EO-2019-2020 “Copernicus evolution – Research activities in support of cross-cutting applications between Copernicus services” under grant agreement No. 870353.
