This project is a continuation of the 'FlowFinder' demonstrated at the CUASHI 2017 HydroInformatics Conference in Tuscaloosa, AL in collaboration with Pat Johnson. Its intention is to help users find, view and download the National Hydrograph Dataset (NHD) and National Water Model Data from either a desktop or mobile application.
Of particular interest is the ability to find nearby NHD reaches in the field.
Much of the data processing and gathering is driven by the HydroData and NWM packages with a interface driven by R Shiny.
