Abstract
This presentation introduces HydroSuite, an open-source ecosystem of more than 140 software tools and libraries developed by the HydroInformatics Lab at Tulane University to support hydrological education, research, and operations. The collection is organized around four areas — data, computing, communication, and community portals — and is built on modern web technologies including WebAssembly, Web Workers, WebRTC, and WebGPU, with the goal of bringing complex hydrologic analysis into the browser with minimal server-side dependency. Core components include HydroLang, a client-side programming framework for hydrological analysis; HydroCompute, a multi-CPU and GPU parallel computing library; HydroRTC, a real-time communication library for decentralized data streaming and sharing; BMI-JS, a JavaScript implementation of the CSDMS Basic Model Interface for coupling models to models and data; and markup-based component libraries (HydroLang-ML and Geo-WC) that expose data retrieval and visualization from agencies such as USGS, EPA, NWS, and FEMA through custom HTML elements. The presentation also lays out a five-phase development roadmap that moves from technical client- and server-side coding toward more intuitive interfaces, including HydroBlox (a block-based visual programming environment), the HydroSuite AI Helper (LLM-driven code assistance), and HydroAI (a voice-enabled agentic interface that generates workflows on a map from natural language).
