Fused, per-kilometre navigability dataset for European inland waterways

Fused, per-kilometre navigability dataset for European inland waterways: legally-released versus practically-usable cargo draft per river section, computed from live water-level measurements and forecasts at every gauge on the Rhine, Waal, IJssel, Nederrijn, Lek and Danube; plus 24-hour draft trends, bridge vertical clearances with forecasts, high-water closure triggers, self-measured bathymetric depth charts for the Dutch river branches combined with official German WSV charts, and reconciliations of official guaranteed fairway depth against actual surveyed depth deficits.

Dataset card

Type: not stated
Format: Tabular time series plus georeferenced river-kilometre PDF depth charts and an Inland ECDIS layer
Volume: Daily and forecast water-level series for every gauge retrieved across six river systems (order of 50-150 gauges), per-section draft and clearance tables refreshed continuously, 24-hour trend history per section, and a versioned bathymetric depth-chart set for the Dutch branches plus the German Rhine (current release dated late September 2026). Total: a continuous multi-year gauge archive fused with a periodically-revised channel geometry library.
Users: Likely zero formal registrations (personal settings are stored locally on the user's device rather than in an account); effective regular user base in the low thousands of professional skippers and shipping-desk staff (inferred from a single active WhatsApp community group and the narrow professional audience)
History: not stated
Update frequency: not stated
Growth: Active — depth-chart set versioned September 2026, live forecasts and 24-hour trends, and an active WhatsApp practitioner group; single-maintainer project, so user growth is modest while data currency is high
Launched: Est. 2021-2023 — the operator describes it only as having started a few years ago as a hobby project; absent are any published founding date, copyright year or funding record
