This is sourced from Lonelyplanet and to my judgment this means tap water is drinkable in larger towns, while it's not in smaller towns in general. This is not the same across the …

I saw it now, it's an issue with the GeoJSON, I'll fix that soon!

Good point, thanks, I missed that! TBH I need to brush up on GDPR law. FYI The website itself is not using any cookies, but GA and the Crisp chat are using them.

Do you mean because of the contradictory data sources? (WHO saying mostly safe, CDC no, Numbeo 50%)?

That's indeed interesting! Chlorine in the tap water seems to be one of the major factors why people buy bottled water, even though otherwise it might be perfectly healthy.

I was so close to doing that before finding the correct term :D

Hey, can you tell me why? Don't know specifics about Fiji.

That's a very interesting fact, thanks for that!

Hey, glad you like it! Yes I am using Awesomplete with some custom CSS and loading the autocomplete results on page load (I figured that's more performant in my case than loading i…

That's interesting, I'll look into that! Sparkling water might be indeed a reason why people buy bottled water, although there are household solutions for that as well.

You are right, I should have specified that tap water quality doesn't include the taste of it. Apart from that Belgium tap water is perfectly safe to drink! I don't know specifics …

Indeed, just looking at the data on a country-level misses a lot! I am working on providing city-level data, which by the way is substantially harder as the data for most places is…

Yes Leaflet in combination with a CartoCDN basemap

Which country exactly would be disrespected in this case? :D On a serious note, Italy indeed has some tap water problems https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_supply_and_sanitation_i…

For the map itself, Numbeo is not the primary source, that would be the WHO data, which is weighted 3 times more than the data coming from Numbeo to put an emphasis on a more relia…

Thanks for your thoughts! I'll try and make it easier to "explore the world" as you said, definitely going to remove the "zoom in". I initially tried to keep the data shown on the …

Thanks for those links! It seems https://www.data.gov/ is a great source for US tap water data used by both websites!

That's a good point, I think it very much depends on the area you are in, that's why I added sub-pages for each country, e.g. https://www.iswatersafetodrink.in/germany/Munich . Alt…

Hi HN! I made this while I was lockdown-bored. The data sources are linked on the website. I plan to add scientific reports on water-levels soon on a city-level. I want to raise aw…
