Design And Development Of A Dynamic Web App Library For Hydroshare, Alexander Hart Henrichsen Jun 2022

Design And Development Of A Dynamic Web App Library For Hydroshare, Alexander Hart Henrichsen

Theses and Dissertations

This paper documents the design and creation of an App Library for HydroShare water resources data and software discovery and sharing system. This App Library was developed to simplify the discovery process for using environmental web applications and to lower hosting requirements for such a repository. To accomplish this goal, I created the HydroShare App Library as a standalone web application using the React JavaScript framework. The App Library application uses the existing HydroShare resource connectors to allow the registration of all web applications within the App Library without having external software requirements. This allows the HydroShare App Library to …


Design And Development Of A Tethys Framework Web Application To Elucidate The Hydroshare.Org Application Programmer Interface, Abhishek Amalaraj, Daniel P. Ames May 2021

Design And Development Of A Tethys Framework Web Application To Elucidate The Hydroshare.Org Application Programmer Interface, Abhishek Amalaraj, Daniel P. Ames

Open Water Journal

In recent years, data and file sharing have advanced significantly, opening doors for engineers from all over the world to stay connected with each other and share data, models, scripts and other information required for scientific and engineering purposes. HydroShare (www.hydroshare.org) was developed by a consortium of universities sponsored by the National Science Foundation (NSF) as a means for improving data and model sharing. Originally released in 2014, and continually updated since that time, HydroShare has proven to be a valuable resource for a growing number of active users in the field of water resources and environmental research. …


Geoglows Hydroviewer: Open Software-As-A-Service For Localizing Global Hydrologic Forecasts Of The Group On Earth Observations Global Water Sustainability Initiative, Kyler Ralph Ashby Apr 2021

Geoglows Hydroviewer: Open Software-As-A-Service For Localizing Global Hydrologic Forecasts Of The Group On Earth Observations Global Water Sustainability Initiative, Kyler Ralph Ashby

Theses and Dissertations

Earth observation data is increasingly ubiquitous, easily accessible, freely available, and generally usable due to improvements in software, data standards, network infrastructure, and national policies. As a result, greater opportunities arise for using these data in a wider field of application including decision support for local and regional environmental and water resources management efforts. In parts of the world where in situ data are less readily available, global Earth observation data used in such decision support tools can be a boon to underfunded government and private water management agencies. The United Nations Group on Earth Observations Global Water Sustainability initiative …


Integrating Hydrologic Modeling Web Services With Online Data Sharing To Prepare, Store, And Execute Hydrologic Models, Tian Gan, David G. Tarboton, Pabitra Dash, Tseganeh Z. Gichamo, Jeffery S. Horsburgh May 2020

Web based applications, web services, and online data and model sharing technology are becoming increasingly available to support hydrologic research. This promises benefits in terms of collaboration, computer platform independence, and reproducibility of modeling workflows and results. In this research, we designed an approach that integrates hydrologic modeling web services with an online data sharing system to support web-based simulation for hydrologic models. We used this approach to integrate example systems as a case study to support reproducible snowmelt modeling for a test watershed in the Colorado River Basin, USA. We demonstrated that this approach enabled users to work within …


Hydroshare Gis: Visualizing Spatial Data In The Cloud, Shawn Crawley, Daniel Ames, Zhiyu Li, David Tarboton Mar 2017

Hydroshare Gis: Visualizing Spatial Data In The Cloud, Shawn Crawley, Daniel Ames, Zhiyu Li, David Tarboton

Open Water Journal

Cloud-based data management systems are more conducive to collaborative efforts when they are integrated with cloud-computing tools that interact with their stored data. HydroShare, a web based data management system for climate and water data, has implemented an Application Programming Interface and a web application platform deployed using Tethys Platform to encourage the development of apps that interact with its data. HydroShare GIS is the result of one such development effort to provide cloud-based visualization of spatial data stored in HydroShare. It functions by accessing the spatial metadata contained within the HydroShare resource data model and overlaying datasets as layers …
