QNSPECT
Description
Also known as the Nonpoint Source Pollution and Erosion Comparison Tool, QNSPECT is a QGIS plug-in that allows users to estimate nonpoint-source pollution and erosion processes within watersheds. Users can then compare pollutant and sediment loads based on different scenarios. The tool is designed to be broadly applicable for coastal and non-coastal areas alike. Note that QINSPECT required QGIS v.3.22, or above.
