Name	Keywords	Description	Language
AsyncRetriever		AsyncRetriever is a python package that can be used to access the high-level API for asynchronous requests with persistent caching.	Python
dataRetrieval	data access network navigation	This R package provides access to water quantity, quality, and use datasets served through USGS Water Data Services. It can also be used to interface with the hydrographic discovery and navigation functionalities of the NLDI.	R
dataretrieval-python	data retrieval hydrology python NWIS water	dataretrieval-python was created to simplify the process of loading hydrologic data into the Python environment.	Python
DataRetrieval.jl	data retrieval hydrology Julia NWIS water	DataRetrieval.jl is a Julia alternative to the R dataRetrieval package for obtaining USGS water data directly from web services.	Julia
Fluvial Corridor Toolbox	hydromorphology; fluvial geomorphology; river corridor mapping; fluvial corridor mapping	The Fluvial Corridor Toolbox for QGIS is a set of geoalgorithms intended to describe and measure fluvial features and processes.	NA
GDP web	area-weighted aggregation subset	GDP web is a web user interface that accesses the Geo Data Portal web services to provide subset and area-weighted statistics of numerous gridded climate and land use datasets. Data subsets can be selected by time and/or user-provided polygons.	web GUI
gdptools	area-weighted aggregation gridded to vector data subset	This Python package can be used to aggregate gridded or polygon dataset to a target polygon dataset. The input gridded dataset can be any dataset that is readable by Xarray, and thus can handle multi-dimensional datasets, while the input target polygon dataset can be any vector dataset that is readable by Geopandas. An example of this is aggregating a CONUS404 gridded dataset spanning multiple timesteps to a polygon dataset representing the HUC8 basins covering an entire state. The outputs are a GeoDataframe of the polygon dataset and an Xarray DataSet containing the aggregations values for each polygon and timestep.	Python
geoconnex.us	hydrographic addressing	Geoconnex.us is a feature registry providing persistent URI redirects for spatial features that are meaningful to environmental science. Any data provider can register dataset-specific or community reference identifiers with geoconnex.us. Data linked to the NHGF reference fabric are linked through geoconnex.us identifiers.	NA
geoknife	area-weighted aggregation subset	geoknife is an R package that accesses the Geo Data Portal web services to provide subsets and area-weighted statistics of gridded climate and land use datasets. Data subsets can be selected by time and/or user-provided polygons.	R
Geoserver	data access	Geoserver provides high-performance and scalable Web Feature Services (WFS) for: 1) NHDPlusV2 flowlines, catchments, and water bodies, 2) HUC08 and HUC12 catchments, and 3) GAGES II gage locations and basins.	web GUI
grd2shp_xagg	area-weighted aggregation subset	This Python package can be used to aggregate gridded datasets to polygons by wrapping the xagg Python package. The package can also facilitate mapping, renaming, and generating netCDF files for multiple variables. grd2shp_xagg can be used on any dataset that can be loaded into the xarray Python library.	Python
GSPy	data standard implementation	GSPy is a Python tool that implements a newly proposed geophysical data standard, called the GS convention, based on the NetCDF file format. The current implementation provides basic workflows to convert datasets from both tabular ASCII text and GeoTIFF raster input files into standardized NetCDF files.	Python
HASP	groundwater groundwater quality time-series data major aquifers NWIS Principal Aquifers water-level data wells	HASP - the Hydrologic AnalySis Package. This R package retrieves publicly accessible groundwater data, performs basic statistical analyses and generates summary plots and tables to view changes over time.	R
HydroAdd	hydrographic addressing	HydroAdd is a web-based tool that enables users to hydrographically address information to the National Hydrography Dataset High-Resolution (NHD HR).	web GUI
hydroloom	hydrofabric hydrology	The hydroloom package is a collection of R functions to work with hydrologic geospatial fabrics.	R
hyswap	hydrology NWIS python water	Hyswap – the HYdrologic Surface Water Analysis Package. This python package provides a set of functions for calculating statistics and generating summary plots on a surface water data set.	Python
nhdplusTools	hydrographic addressing network navigation subset	This R package provides functionality to work with NHDPlus flowline, flowpath, and catchment features. The subsetting functionality allows you to query for features of interest or find related features using network navigation up- or downstream. The hydrographic addressing functionality allows you to link points, lines, or polygons to the features in the NHDPlus dataset.	R
NLDI API	hydrographic addressing network navigation	The NLDI API offers a search service to discover information that has been hydrographically addressed to NHDPlus V2 catchments through the NLDI. Data hydrographically addressed to the NLDI includes active NWIS stream gages, water quality portal sites, and outlets of HUC12 watersheds. The NLDI API also offers a network navigation functionality for hydrographically addressed data so users can discover features up- or downstream of a feature of interest.	API
Py3DEP	data access subset	Py3DEP is a python package that can be used to access topographic data through National Map’s 3DEP web service.	Python
PyDaymet	data access subset	PyDaymet is a python package that can be used to access Daymet climate data and pull daily, monthly and annual summaries at 1-km scale.	Python
pyGDP	area-weighted aggregation subset	pyGDP is a Python package that accesses the Geo Data Portal web services to provide subsets and area-weighted statistics of gridded climate and land use datasets. Data subsets can be selected by time and/or user-provided polygons.	Python
