# Explore Beachwatch swim sites with pollution forecasts and latest water quality, New South Wales

An interactive dashboard over Beachwatch swim sites with pollution forecasts and latest water quality, New South Wales, worked out in the browser with DuckDB-WASM and Perspective from the Parquet file of a dated version. It needs a browser; an agent is better served by the query API or the files on https://publicdata.au/d/nsw-beachwatch-sites/index.md.

The dashboard state sits in the URL fragment. A saved dashboard is at https://publicdata.au/d/nsw-beachwatch-sites/explore/?view=<id>, and POST https://publicdata.au/api/v1/views stores one. The frame for embedding is https://publicdata.au/d/nsw-beachwatch-sites/embed/?view=<id>, read-only unless the address adds &edit=1.
