## What is Gotea?

Gotea is Puerto Rico's water map. Made by neighbors, for neighbors.

It shows three things nobody else shows you together: where water is being lost, who has service today, and how much water is left in the reservoirs.

LEAKS
See a leak on the street? Mark it on the map with a photo and you're done. It stays visible to everyone, with the date it was reported, until someone marks it as repaired. Every report is reviewed before it's published. Gotea puts the call to the AAA (787-620-AGUA) one tap away so you can report the leak directly, and each leak comes with a card ready for the neighborhood WhatsApp group. What you see on the map is what neighbors reported, not an official record.

SERVICE
Your zone's rationing calendar, as published by the AAA, and when the turn changes. If the government announces a pause, the map shows it with the date and the reason, and returns to the plan on its own when it ends. Most importantly: what neighbors say. Every day you can say whether the water reached you or not, and when your place has an outage, declare since which day you've been without water. When three neighbors from the same place agree, it appears on the map with the number of days. If the plan says you have water today and your neighbors say you don't, Gotea shows it as is.

WHERE I LIVE
Pick your urbanización, public housing, condominium, or sector from a list of thousands of places across the island. That's how Gotea knows which zone of the plan applies to you and where to add your voice, without you ever typing your address. The app can suggest the places closest to you; your location is used only to sort the list and is never stored. If your place isn't listed, propose it and we'll add it.

RESERVOIRS
The level of the main reservoirs as measured by the USGS, with the AAA's scale (normal, observation, adjustments, control), and the Puerto Rico drought monitor, updated weekly.

PRIVACY
No account, no email, no password. We don't ask for your address. Photos are uploaded without metadata, and leaks marked "at the meter" are shown with the point offset so no one's home is singled out. What neighbors say is published only when several agree; no one is ever identified. All data is shared with the press and the government exactly as it comes off the map, so the conversation about water happens with evidence.

Gotea is an independent citizen platform. We are not affiliated with the AAA or the government.

Not one more drop.

Made in Puerto Rico.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.5 — 2026-09-06

Gotea 1.5 is Puerto Rico's water map, not just the leak map.

- "Did the water arrive?" is the first thing you see: one tap and done. From there you set your home or condo.
- Today: your day in four numbers. Rain over your watershed, whether it's your turn for water under the AAA plan, your reservoir's level (USGS, every 15 minutes), and open leaks.
- Rain for the next hour minute by minute (radar) and the next six hours from the NWS, for where you are.
- When the AAA pauses rationing, the app says so everywhere: every zone with service, with the reason and the source.
- Your community: neighborhoods and condos where neighbors are already reporting show up in the app. One tap sends today's message to your group chat: the more people report, the louder we get.
- Which reservoir supplies me? Gotea answers with evidence, sector by sector, and says plainly when it's AAA data and when it's only a suggestion by proximity.
- A guided tour the first time you open Today, the Map, and Me, on the real screens, with your data.
- A new design on every screen, clearer and faster to read.
- The app lets you know when a new version is out.

No account, no names, no phone numbers. Gotea doesn't say anything on its own: the AAA, USGS, NWS, and your neighbors do.

### 1.4 — 2026-09-03

Gotea now tells you when it will rain.

• Rain layer: the seven-day forecast over each reservoir's basin, with the millimeters each one gets. Tap a day and the map changes.
• "When will it rain?": the answer in one sentence for your area, today and tomorrow hour by hour, and the week by time of day. For where you live or where you are.
• Rain alerts: turn them on and we'll warn you a few minutes before rain starts where you are or where you live. At most three a day, never in the middle of the night.
• Official flood alerts from the National Weather Service, with your place by name and the polygon on the map.
• New layer selector with icons: Leaks, Rain and Service. The map no longer shifts when you switch layers.
• Reservoir levels are still there: the ribbon at the top, the full list when you tap it, and each reservoir's ladder.

Minute-by-minute forecast by Apple Weather. Basin rain and alerts from NWS San Juan. Levels from USGS.

### 1.3 — 2026-09-02

Gotea is no longer just the leak map: it's the water map of Puerto Rico.

SERVICE
AAA's rationing plan, sector by sector, with who has water today and who doesn't. And what neighbors report: water arrived, arrived with low pressure, or never came. When the plan is paused, the map says so, with the date and the reason.

OUTAGES
If your neighborhood has been without water for days, declare it. The outage stays open until the water is back, and it shows on the map once three neighbors from the same place confirm it. Gotea documents how long it's been; it doesn't say whose fault it is.

WHERE I LIVE
Pick your subdivision, public housing, condominium or sector — just the name, never your address. With that, reporting your water status is one tap. If your place isn't on the list, propose it.

RESERVOIRS
The monitored reservoirs, with their USGS level and AAA's alert level, on the map and in a chart you can sort from worst to best. Plus the drought, according to the U.S. Drought Monitor, every week.

ALSO
Case number on your reports. Connect your browser to use the same profile on the web. A recovery code so you don't lose your profile if you change phones. Report a leak from any section.

None of this is Gotea's word. It's AAA, USGS and your neighbors. Gotea just puts it together, in plain sight.
