Install
pip install stormhubAbout StormHub
StormHub, from Dewberry, automates the data-wrangling behind probabilistic flood modelling: it harvests hydrometeorological archives (gridded precipitation, USGS gauge records), identifies and characterises storm events, and publishes the results as STAC catalogs — the FAIR-compliant metadata standard — ready to feed stochastic storm transposition workflows and HEC-HMS simulations.
It sits in the same modern-flood-risk toolchain as FEMA's Future of Flood Risk Data work (alongside rashdf): open, scriptable, catalog-first infrastructure for running hydrology as ensembles rather than single design events. Young but actively developed and pip-installable.
