This workshop is a compact version of a previously offered series designed to serve USGS employees aimed at improving training effectiveness in their centers and offices. Participants will learn best practices in adult learning and apply them to training scenarios in their individual work environments. There will be an opportunity for large and smaller group conversations to process the materials and to encourage collaborating and sharing resources.

The Discrete Samples Extensibility Tools (DSET) were developed to help USGS AQUARIUS Samples users with various data needs beyond the AQS user interface. The DSET suite of R-packages and Shiny web applications, such the Batch Data Loader (BDL), Water Quality Review (WQR), and the packages that support them, were designed to incorporate future development from the user community. In the past, WSCs have developed local tools that complimented their review process in WQ-Review; however, these scripts, modules, and tools were not widely distributed to the greater user community. With the release of AQS and DSET, we encourage those developers who have great ideas for enhancing DSET to build upon the tools and incorporate those enhancements through a process that results in wider release to the user community. This course will cover the basic structure of the DSET code repositories and a workflow for developing and submitting enhancements.
The use of cellular telemetry for DCP and Internet of Things (IoT) is increasing in the USGS. This presentations will give practical tips and tricks to enhance the success of your cellular installation.

QRevMS is an application used for processing and reviewing ADCP midsection discharge measurements. Like QRev, QRevMS processes data loaded from the manufacture data files using automated quality checks and data filtering. During this talk we will discuss the background of the application, the various settings throughout the user interface, and give a demonstration on the applications use.
New York update one year after installing 50 image velocimetry setups at existing gages as part of a flood-hardening project. We will share information about the project background, our power, hardware, software, and telemetry setup.
I’ve been with the USGS for 10 years. I’m currently working on the NY camera expansion project and NGWOS groundwater/surface-water interactions in the Neversink River test bed. I like to explore cutting-edge technologies and thrive on unconventional problem-solving.
Started in the USGS with the VA/WV WSC in 2016. Currently work for the NYWSC undertaking a large expansion of their Imagery Gage network. I enjoy trying to use new methods and technologies to provide more high quality and relevant data. My focuses are in gage construction, equipment... Read More →
NuGo2 is ready for release! NuGo2 replaces legacy Go2, which will be decommissioned, to alert hydrographers and data managers about potential site issues and the need for site visits. This session will give an update and overview of functionality in NuGo2 followed by a training on setting up configurations. NuGo2 is a modernized version of Go2 with improved code, centralized and supported infrastructure, and broad accessibility. NuGo2 is implemented on a national level, making it available to all WSCs and supportive of broad scale diagnostics and situational awareness. NuGo2 accesses all telemetry methods, incorporates different data sources, centralizes configurations, and allows for customization including flexible parameter selection.
- I am in the Hydrologic Networks Branch of the Observing Systems in WMA.- I physically sit in Logan UT- I am involved in improving data workflows- I am the product owner for NuGo2
