Current Conditions Pipeline

September 9, 2026

This repository processes and visualizes near–real-time groundwater and streamflow data from U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) sources.

It uses a combination of R, Python, and GitLab CI to generate regularly updated map-based visualizations and publish them to AWS S3.

The pipeline is designed to balance data completeness, update frequency, and API constraints while maximizing the number of sites included in each visualization.
