Mahi Maioro have launched a live tool for monitoring the mauri of the Upper Waikato in Ngā Rua Hu Wai o Tahu Matua in the upper Waikato, in partnership with Te Arawa River Iwi Trust (TARIT). The tool combined live water quality sensing tools and cultural monitoring information from a dedicated Waiora app (designed by others) to form an understanding of the mauri of the ecosystem and the iwi associated with the upper Waikato.Find our more and explore the tool on TARIT's website here.
