Software

AQUA TERRA Consultants maintains several software packages.

Software available from the Applications page at the Water Resources Division (WRD) of the USGS

HSPF (see also our HSPF page)
HSPF User's Manual (in Windows Help format)
GenScn (see also our GenScn page)
ANNIE A Character-based interactive program designed to help users store, retrieve, list, plot, check, and update spatial, parametric, and time-series data for hydrologic models and analyses. Data are stored in a direct access file called a Watershed Data Management (WDM) file.
HSPEXP (see also our HSPEXP page)
IOWDM A character-based program designed to reformat data to and from a WDM file.
SWSTAT Software for statistically analyzing time-series data. The time-series data are read from a Watershed Data Management (WDM) file. The computed statistics and (or) time series can be written back to the WDM file or to a text file.

Software available from the Office of Science and Technology of the Office of Water of the EPA

HSPFParm Parameter Database for HSPF Water Quality Applications
WinHSPF is now distributed with BASINS
The BASINS home page (see also our BASINS page)

Software available from the Center for Exposure Assessment Modeling (CEAM) of the EPA

The EPA-CEAM version of HSPF (for PC)
PATRIOT A methodology for providing rapid analyses of groundwater vulnerability to pesticides on a regional, state or local level. The PATRIOT software package integrates, in a PC environment, a tool that enables analysis of pesticide leaching potential with the data needed to use the tool for area-specific analyses anywhere in the conterminous United States.
PRZM-3 Pesticide Root Zone Model (see also our PRZM-3 page)
