Release Notes

The Reclamation Information Sharing Environment (RISE) is a system for viewing, accessing, and downloading Reclamation's data via a centralized data portal.

With RISE you can:

  • Access a range of data types (geospatial, time series, and other) from multiple data domains (e.g. water, hydropower, biological, water quality, and infrastructure/assets).
  • Locate data via the map.
  • Search the catalog for data.
  • Query and download observed and modeled data.
  • Plot and map data.
  • Get machine readable time series datasets to use as input for your models, applications and analyses via manual downloads or automated data exchange via web service.

RISE helps fulfill Reclamation’s responsibilities under the OPEN Government Data Act to make data assets available in open and machine-readable formats. RISE is the replacement for the Reclamation Water Information System (RWIS), which was retired in 2020.

  • RISE Release 2.15.7.1

    Jul 23, 2026

    RISE Release 2.15.7.1 was deployed on July 22, 2026. It was a minor release covering 9 tickets, including five front-end improvements and four Data Admin UI changes. Front-end changes included two updates to the download process for files from the Time Series Query page to avoid errors when downloading large CSV files and to make the download experience consistent for desktop and mobile devices. Other front-end updates corrected metadata tags for Location Details pages, fixed label and breadcrumb inconsistencies, improved elevation formatting for negative values, and restored the functionality of a button that had been broken in a previous release. Data Admin UI changes standardized timestamp storage to use UTC and added time zone support for date reporting, updated login templates to eliminate references to username and password login, added display of the active account name for masquerading users, and improved Active Directory synchronization logic for more reliable determination of entity status. See Release Notes for more details.
