🚀 Featured Projects

🏆 NextGen In A Box (NGIAB) Ecosystem

Containerized solution for running the NextGen Water Resources Modeling Framework locally

📊 NextGen Research DataStream (NRDS)

Automated system for continuous hydrologic predictions

  • forcingprocessor - Forcingprocessor converts National Water Model (NWM) forcing data into Next Generation National Water Model (NextGen) forcing data
  • ngen-datastream - Infrastructure and tooling for the NextGen Research DataStream (NRDS) - Datastream Orchestration on AWS
  • datastreamcli - DataStreamCLI is a stand alone tool that automates the complete workflow from preprocessing input data for NextGen to execution of the NextGen simulation through NextGen In a Box (NGIAB)
  • S3 bucket - datastream.ciroh.org - README.html provides more details
  • NRDS Visualizer - nrds.ciroh.org
  • Community parameter integration capability (in-progress)

💧 NextGen Framework Core Components

Essential modeling engines powering the NextGen Water Resources Modeling Framework

  • ngen - NextGen Water Resources Modeling Framework Engine (fork from NOAA-OWP repo) (ngiab branch integrated into NGIAB)
  • t-route - Tree-based hydrologic routing engine for river network flow (fork from NOAA-OWP repo) (ngiab branch integreated into NGIAB)
  • lstm - Basic Model Interface (BMI) for streamflow prediction using Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) networks (main branch - integrated into NGIAB)
  • rust-lstm - A Rust implementation of a BMI adapter for LSTM-based streamflow prediction

Data Access

  • api-nwm-gcp - NWM BigQuery API - REST API backed by National Water Model data, developed and deployed on Google Cloud Platform
  • nwmurl - It provides utility functions specifically designed to subset and generate National Water Model (NWM) data URLs
  • nwm_kerchunk - It provides National Water Model (NWM) output, which is stored as .nc files, into JSON headers and upload them to an AWS S3 bucket.

CIROH-2i2c JupyterHub

CIROH DocuHub and Portal

  • ciroh-ua_website - technical documentation of few of the CIROH's projects, services, policies, latest blogs and news.
  • ciroh-portal - CIROH portal for products, publications and courses
