Built by students. Powered by real data. Driven by a passion for our planet.
We are a team of students and future engineers and scientists who refuse to accept the norm of declining environmental health. Driven by a passion for sustainability and new technology, we combined our various skills to prove that the next generation of environmental solutions starts in our classroom and this hackathon.
Protecting our environment shouldn't require a degree or an expensive lab. It should be simple and easy. We made an open-access app that can help detect algal blooms so even your local community can do something about it. By utilizing an API we can determine the health of your nearest water body and we provide solutions on how we can improve the health.
We believe protecting the environment shouldn't require a degree or an expensive lab.
We combine cutting-edge AI and real government data to make environmental science accessible.
We built BloomWatch so even your local community can understand and act on water health.
Every insight is powered by real USGS and EPA data — the same sources scientists use.
We find the 5 nearest water monitoring stations to your location using USGS data.
Choose from the nearest rivers, lakes, and streams — each showing real-time risk levels.
Our AI analyzes the live data and speaks as the water body itself, giving you a personal, emotional report.
Get hyper-local action steps, ecosystem impact info, and educational resources specific to your area.
