Trending toward “Data as a Service”Providers host large datasets on remote servers and provide standardized methods to search and download specific sets of interest.
Allows data to be gathered automatically as part of a larger workflow.Industry-wide interoperability.
Improved access to geospatial information.

Conclusion
Data Services may be used for hydrologic modeling. Seamless data Authoritative Limited manual processing
NHDPlus subbasins and reaches provide a national framework consistent with HUC basins.HMS-PrePro may be used to initialize hydrologic
models in NHD format.
Thank you!
