What is HydroSight

HydroSight is a highly flexible statistical toolbox and user interface for getting more quantitative value from groundwater level monitoring data.

What can I do with HydroSight

Currently, the toolbox contains a highly flexible groundwater hydrograph time-series modeling framework (Peterson and Western, 2014) that facilitates the following:

  • decomposition of a groundwater hydrograph into individual drivers, such as climate and pumping or climate (Shapoori et al. 2015a) and landuse change (Peterson and Western, 2014).
  • estimation of aquifer hydraulic properties from the hydrograph (Shapoori et al. 2015b)
  • statistical identification of the major groundwater processes (Shapoori et al. 2015a).
  • interpolation or extrapolation of the observed hydrograph.
  • simulation of groundwater head under different climate or, say, pumping scenarios.
  • numerical identification of hydrograph monitoring errors and outliers.

How Can I use HydroSight

HydroSight can be used in two ways:

  • Programmatically: using a collection Matlab of object-oriented classes that provides enormous flexibility to built time-series models and develop new models and components.
  • Graphical User Interface: stand alone application that provides a highly flexible framework for the efficient construction, modelling and simulation of an unlimited number of models within a simple graphical environment.

This wiki focuses on the various modelling approaches and the GUI. It does not focus on the programmatic use, but which is documented within the header to most classes, methods and functions.
