Abstract

Water science and management challenges require synthesis of diverse data. Many data analysis tasks are difficult because data are large or complex; standard formats are not always agreed upon or mapped to efficient structures for analysis; scientists may lack training for tackling large and complex datasets; and it can be difficult to share, collaborate around, and reproduce scientific work. Access to computing for running and sharing data science or modeling workflows and structuring them in a way that they can be reproduced can also be challenging. Overcoming these barriers can transform the way water scientists work. Participants will learn how to use multiple data science tools, including data retrieval packages for easy access to data from the United States Geological Survey’s (USGS) National Water Information System (NWIS) and tools associated with the CUAHSI HydroShare repository and linked JupyterHub environment available to assist scientists in building, sharing, and publishing more reproducible scientific workflows following Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable (FAIR) principles. We will demonstrate how the technical burden for scientists associated with creating a computational environment for executing analyses can be reduced and how sharing and reproducibility of analyses can be enhanced through the use of these tools.

This HydroShare resource includes all of the materials presented in a workshop at WaterSciCon24.

WaterSciCon24 Workshop Materials

This HydroShare resource contains the materials presented at the WaterSciCon24 conference held in Saint Paul, MN June 24-27, 2024.

Workshop Title: Advancing Open Data Science and Analytics for Water

Learning Objectives

After attending this workshop, participants will be able to:

  1. Use the USGS data retrieval packages to retrieve and work with data from the USGS NWIS system.
  2. Access geospatial data from the 3D elevation (3DEP) database and Reference Hydrologic Geospatial Fabric.
  3. Use HydroShare’s client package to interact with the HydroShare repository to create resources, create and edit metadata, and share content.
  4. Create and share executable Jupyter notebooks using these tools and the CUAHSI JupyterHub computational environment in support of developing FAIR computational workflows.

Preparing for the Workshop

Before executing the notebooks contained in this resource, participants must complete the following:

  1. Create a HydroShare user account
  2. Log in to HydroShare and request to join the CUAHSI Cloud Computing group at https://www.hydroshare.org/group/156

See the HydroShare Jupyter Quickstart PDF document in this resource if you need instructions.

Executing the Notebooks

To execute the interactive notebooks in this resource:

  1. At the top of this page in HydroShare, click the "Open with" button and select "CUAHSI JupyterHub"
  2. When prompted, select the first server option in the list of server options - "Python v3.9.7 - JupyterLab Interface"
  3. Scroll to the bottom of the server options and click the "Start" button
  4. Wait for your server to start up and then double click on the notebook you want to run in the file browser panel on the left.

Files Included in this Resource

  • Notebooks: Folder containing all of the example notebooks presented
  • Presentations: Folder containing all of the slides presented
  • HydroShareJupyterQuickstart.pdf: Instructions for getting access to the CUAHSI JupyterHub server through HydroShare

Additional Example Notebooks
