2 Introduction 2

3 Introduction At the end of this presentation you will have a good understanding of CLOCA s Conservation Authority Hydrologic Information System and how it can benefit your organization. 3

4 Central Lake Ontario Conservation Authority CUAHSI Consortium of Universities for the Advancement of Hydrologic Science, Inc. 4

5 CUAHSI Hydrologic Database Standardized Data Model. Freeware, Open Source. To streamline data collection, storage, and analysis Facilitate sharing of data between researchers and the public. To enable CLOCA to become a better scientific data partner. 5

6 A Standardized Storage System for all Hydrological Data: Surface Water Gauge Stations Flood Forecasting & Warning Low Water Response Climate Monitoring Groundwater Level Water Quality Baseflow 6

7 Prior to Implementation of CUAHSI Database Non-Standardized data model. Proprietary, closed source applications. Manual data collection, storage, and analysis. Labour and time intensive data management practices. Inefficient methodology for accessing and reporting. Poor delivery of communications. 7

8 CLOCA s CUAHSI Database Implementation Standardize Data Collection and Storage. Migration to Open Source platform. Automate and Streamline Data Interface. Reduce Labour and Time investment through customized reporting and analysis tools. 8
