Hydstra Options

When integrated with the Hydstra time series platform, well-designed modules help meet precise goals associated with the management of water resources. Users appreciate the ability to prioritize their needs and partner with KISTERS to implement proven IT solutions as well as access friendly and knowledgeable support professionals.

As the scope of their responsibilities grows, our clients have the opportunity to select specific modules and progress toward longer term planning. An increasing number of clients desire more strategic usage of data – from descriptive to predictive (forecasting models) and even prescriptive (identify optimal conditions for operations).

• Biology / Ecology
  conduct taxon or habitat-specific analyses or evaluate links with water quality over user-defined periods


• Groundwater Bore Management
  store information about bores including construction details, bore schematics, and production timelines
  in addition level data can be retrieved from any datum and displayed with other water data parameters


• Mapping
  access a Windows-based map interface to retrieve, analyze, and display data in Hydstra on a map base
  note: This tool is not designed to replace corporate GIS systems like ArcInfo and MapInfo, which it reads.


• Modeling
  employ a Windows-based program for synchronous modeling of water balance analysis, flow routing,
  error propagation, or load calculation


• SQL Query
  use ODBC (Open Database Connectivity) to perform SQL queries although Hydstra is a NoSQL database


• Task Scheduler
  evolve from batch processing to real time, and automate processes by defining business rules
  maintain a history of scheduled backups, quality coding, and data transfer besides completion statuses


• Water Quality
  integrate data from continuous monitoring and discrete sampling as well as lab results and LIMS


• Web Services
  interoperability functions enable online data sharing with specific stakeholders or the general public
  note: Services range from data requests and responses to web portals, from widgets to map image files.
