Water withdrawals or water abstractions, is the freshwater taken from ground or surface water sources and conveyed to a place of use. These, normally, are sectorial distributed and in this specific case, five of the most important water sectors such as irrigation, livestock-based agriculture, industry, thermal electricity production, and households and small businesses are examined. (Estimated from the WaterGAP3 model) This map shows the quantity of WTA taken from available watersheds, presented in two categories (considering a threshold of 40%) being Stressed or Not Stressed.For more information, access the Urban Water Blueprint report here: http://www.iwa-network.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/Urban-Water-Blueprint-Report.pdfYou can also visit the Urban Water Blueprint website here: http://water.nature.org/waterblueprint/#/intro=true
