We're pleased to share that FDRI's Digital Platform (Beta) will be launching on the 1st of September.
The beta platform is the starting point of our digital ambitions: content and functionality will be added over the next 2 years. We'll also be seeking your feedback to iterate the data accessibility, content and tools available, based on user needs.
Once live in September, the platform will include:
- A catalogue of currently available datasets
- Interactive maps of FDRI catchments, highlighting existing and planned monitoring infrastructure and data
- An interactive time series explorer showing real time data from FDRI catchments, for sites already installed (Upper Severn, Upper Tweed and Chess), alongside other monitoring networks
- “Analysis Ready, Cloud Optimised” versions of large gridded datasets: including rainfall, PE, with notebooks for demonstrating data access (point data extraction, catchment averaging)
- A cloud-hosted version of 1m LiDAR data for England and Wales, with notebooks for demonstrating how to clip areas, plot data, and produce drainage grids and catchment boundaries
- A shared repository of open source hydrological tools
