SUTRA: A Model for 2D or 3D Saturated-Unsaturated, Variable-Density Ground-Water Flow With Solute or Energy Transport SUTRA: A Model for 2D or 3D Saturated-Unsaturated, Variable-Density Ground-Water Flow With Solute or Energy Transport

SutraSuite is a collection of software for groundwater modeling in both two spatial dimensions (2D) and three spatial dimensions (3D). It includes the SUTRA groundwater model, the SutraGUI pre-processor, the SutraPrep text-based preprocessor, and the SutraPolot post-processor.

hyswap hyswap

There is a need for water professionals to provide water information in maps and graphics that contextualize data for real-time decision-making. hyswap (HYdrologic Surface Water Analysis Package), is a Python package that provides a set of functions for manipulating and visualizing USGS water data. Specifically, a number of functions for calculating statistics (e.g., exceedance...

Water budget estimation for a water availability assessment across the conterminous United States for water years 2010–2020 Water budget estimation for a water availability assessment across the conterminous United States for water years 2010–2020

This pipeline calculates a simple monthly water budget that includes water supply and consumptive use for thermoelectric, irrigation, and public supply for 12-digit Hydrologic Unit Codes (HUC12) across the conterminous United States for water years 2010-2020. Water budget results also include an assessment of supply and use imbalances within the context of historical climatic conditions...

sundial sundial

This software release provides a means of inferring the acquisition time of an image using the sundial method. This approach involves measuring the orientation of a shadow on the image and using the calculated solar geometry for that date to identify the time at which the sun would have been positioned so as to cast the observed shadow. The shadow orientation measurement can be made on...

Workflow to apply the Uniform Manifold Approximation and Projection algorithm to compare streamflow dynamics in hydrologic catchments version 1.0.0 Workflow to apply the Uniform Manifold Approximation and Projection algorithm to compare streamflow dynamics in hydrologic catchments version 1.0.0

A series of Jupyter notebooks describing the application of uniform manifold approximation and projection (UMAP) to streamflow in hydrologic catchments (examples given for Upper Colorado River Basin) and evaluation of manifolds from modeled and observational data. UMAP produces features that are robust, meaning the resulting images will look similar, even though the underlying data may...

hyRefactor: Tools for Manipulating the NHDPlus Network in Preparation for Hydrologic Modeling hyRefactor: Tools for Manipulating the NHDPlus Network in Preparation for Hydrologic Modeling

This software was used to make derivatives of the features in the NHDPlusV2 geospatial dataset for use in hydrologic model applications. It is not intended for users to deploy/use and may produce unexpected results outside the workflow and environment in which it was implemented. For users seeking to deploy a version of this software, please see https://github.com/noaa-owp/hydrofab. The...

ModelMuse 5.3.1 ModelMuse 5.3.1

This version of ModelMuse fixes bugs in the "Model|Output Control" dialog box that could result in corrupted files.

Formatting and rescaling water use data for the IWAAs National Report Formatting and rescaling water use data for the IWAAs National Report

This software release contains code to create the fractional intersectional weights used to crosswalk data from the National Water Use Program to the National Integrated Water Availability Assessment (IWAAs) projects. The Watershed Boundary Dataset (WBD) contains polygons that define the spatial boundaries of hydrologic units. These are periodically updated as these boundary definitions...

ModelMuse 5.3, Software Release ModelMuse 5.3, Software Release

ModelMuse version 5.3 adds the ability to import existing MODFLOW 6 models with some limitations. Other changes include 1. the ability to use formulas to activate or deactivate specified head, specified concentration, and mass source boundaries, 2. the ability to use formulas in the scale factors of dynamic boundaries, 3. support for the AUXMULTNAME option in MODFLOW 6, and 4. the...

Model Viewer 1.8 Model Viewer 1.8

Model Viewer is a computer program that displays the results of three-dimensional ground-water models. Scalar data (such as hydraulic head or solute concentration) may be displayed as a solid or a set of isosurfaces, using a red-to-blue color spectrum or a custom color scale to represent a range of scalar values. Vector data (such as velocity or specific discharge) are represented by...

surface-water-geospatial-data-assembly surface-water-geospatial-data-assembly

The hyswap-geospatial-data-assembly contains function scripts that acquire and pre-process geospatial data used as input for hyswap (HYdrologic Surface Water Analysis Package), a Python package with functions for manipulating hydrologic data and visualizing current conditions with a historical context. hyswap-gda supports hyswap by providing functions that process required spatial inputs...
