NOTE: This dataset has been replaced by AKTEMP, a portal for viewing, uploading, downloading, and managing stream and lake temperature data across Alaska. Please use the AKTEMP site.

AKOATS (Alaska Online Aquatic Temperature Site) was a statewide geospatial metadata inventory of current and historic continuous temperature monitoring locations for streams and lakes. The project was originally funded through a grant from the US Fish and Wildlife Service on behalf of the Western Alaska Landscape Conservation Cooperative. This project compiled a statewide catalog of monitoring locations using a common set of attributes. The inventory is fully accessible via an online mapping interface or it can be viewed and queried directly within a GIS software. This dataset has not been updated since 2021.
