The Need: Hydrologic Information
Science
It is as important to represent hydrologic environments precisely with
data as it is to represent hydrologic processes with equations
Physical laws and principles
(Mass, momentum, energy, chemistry)
Hydrologic Process Science
(Equations, simulation models, prediction)
Hydrologic conditions
(Fluxes, flows, concentrations)
Hydrologic Information Science
(Observations, data models, visualization

“Digital Environment”
Digital Environment
• Use GIS to explicitly map conceptual
model to real digital representation
– What do data represent to scientist?
• Assess utility of data to support multiple
conceptual models
• Pilot Projects:
– WATERS Test beds: Digital watersheds
– Critical Zone Observatories
Advancement of water science is critically
dependent on integration of water information
Models
Databases: Structured data sets to
facilitate data integrity and effective
sharing and analysis.
- Standards
ODM
- Metadata
- Unambiguous interpretation
Analysis: Tools to provide windows
into the database to support
visualization, queries, analysis, and
data driven discovery.
Web Services
Databases
Analysis
Models: Numerical implementations of
hydrologic theory to integrate process
understanding, test hypotheses and
provide hydrologic forecasts.

CUAHSI Observations Data Model
• A relational database at the
Streamflow
single observation level
(atomic model)
• Stores observation data made
at points
Precipitation
• Metadata for unambiguous & Climate
interpretation
• Traceable heritage from raw
measurements to usable
information
Water Quality
• Standard format for data
sharing
• Cross dimension retrieval and
analysis

Stage and Streamflow Example
ODM to Datacube
• A data cube is a database specifically for
data mining (OLAP)
– Organizes data along dimensions such
as time, site, or variable type
– Easy to group, filter, and aggregate
data in a variety of ways
– Simple aggregations such as sum, min,
or max can be pre-computed for speed
– Additional calculations such as median
can be computed dynamically
• SQL Server Analysis Services (SSAS)
provides the OLAP engine
• SQL Server Business Intelligence
Development Studio is used to define and
tune
• Excel and other client tools enable simple
browsing

Managing Data Within ODM - ODM Tools
• Load – import existing
data directly to ODM
• Query and export –
export data series and
metadata
• Visualize – plot and
summarize data
series
• Edit – delete, modify,
adjust, interpolate,
average, etc.

206 cfs, 13 August 2006 {Value, Time, Qualifier, Offset}
A data source operates an observation network
A network is a set of observation sites
A site is a point location where one or more variables are measured
A variable is a property describing the flow or quality of water
A value is an observation of a variable at a particular time
A qualifier is a symbol that provides additional information about the value
An offset allows specification of measurements at various depths in water

Hydrologic Information Server
• Supports data discovery,
delivery and publication
– Data discovery – how do I
find the data I want?
• Map interface and
observations catalogs
• Metadata based Search
– Data delivery – how do I
acquire the data I want?
• Use web services or
retrieve from local
database
– Data Publication – how do I
publish my observation
data?
• Use Observations Data

Data Heterogeneity
• Syntactic mediation
– Heterogeneity of format
– Use WaterML to get data
into the same format
• Semantic mediation
– Heterogeneity of meaning
– Each water data source
uses its own vocabulary
– Match these up with a
common controlled
vocabulary
– Make standard scientific
data queries and have
these automatically
translated into specific
queries on each data
source
Objective
•
Search multiple heterogeneous data sources simultaneously regardless of
semantic or structural differences between them
