Paricia is a hydroclimatic data management system. Originally focused on managing data from stations in the Andes region, it has recently generalized to be able to ingest data from anywhere in the world.
A live version of the tool can be found in:
Paricia is developed at Imperial College London by the Research Software Engineering team within the Research Computing Group. The project is coordinated by Prof. Wouter Buytaert, who leads a group in the Civil Engineering Department and that focus on the impact of environmental change on the water cycle and its consequences for managing water resources. This work involves gathering and processing time-series data like water level, flow and temperature from various monitoring stations based in mountainous areas such as the Andes and Himalayas.
The code was originally based on the iMHEA platform - Plataforma para la Iniciativa Regional de Monitoreo Hidrológico de Ecosistemas Andinos. We are grateful to the following instututions for the development of iMHEA and for sharing their code to use as a starting point for Paricia:
