Real-time for Mallorca's Water — a Step, But Is It Enough?

Answer

How could Mallorca use water data more fairly during droughts?

Mallorca could use open data portals, local water councils, and clear priority rules for drinking water and vital agriculture. That would make it easier for municipalities, farmers, and residents to understand why restrictions are introduced and how water is being allocated. Fairness depends as much on governance as on technology.
