Introduction
The HYDSTRA modelling suite provides a flexible modelling framework for running operational hydrological forecasting models. Originally developed in Australia, the modelling suite has since been acquired and integrated into the WISKI system by Kisters AG (http://kisters.com.au/hydstra-modules.html). Due to support of the modelling suite being discontinued as a part of WISKI, the modelling suite can also be run from as a stand alone executable. The adapter that is described here is used to run the stand alone HYDSTRA modelling engine from the Delft FEWS system. This documentation focuses on the configuration and set-up of the adapter to provide the required inputs to run the model engine, to provide the required run parameters, and to read model results.
Applications
The HYDSTRA modelling engine that this adapter describes is implemented in the following Delft FEWS configurations:
- Alberta River Forecasting System (ARFS), used by Alberta Environment and Parks (AEP), Edmonton, Canada (Deltares contacts: Dave Casson & Micha Werner). Note that AEP owns the IPR of the HYDSTRA Model engine code.
