Features
PyGeoHydro is a part of HyRiver software stack that is designed to aid in watershed analysis through web services. This package provides access to some of the public web services that offer geospatial hydrology data. It has three main modules: pygeohydro, plot, and helpers.
The pygeohydro module can pull data from the following web services:
- NWIS for daily mean streamflow observations,
- NID for accessing the National Inventory of Dams in the US,
- HCDN 2009 for identifying sites where human activity affects the natural flow of the watercourse,
- NLCD 2016 for land cover/land use, imperviousness, and canopy data,
- SSEBop for daily actual evapotranspiration, for both single pixel and
