NGIAB 101 Training

The NGIAB 101 training module, developed by the Cooperative Institute for Research to Operations in Hydrology (CIROH) and Lynker, offers an introductory, hands-on learning experience with NextGen In A Box (NGIAB)—a modular, open-source hydrologic modeling framework designed to advance water prediction capabilities. This comprehensive module guides users through the complete modeling workflow, including system installation, data preparation, model execution, evaluation, and visualization of results.
The training is structured to accommodate users of varying technical backgrounds, from beginners to advanced practitioners. It provides step-by-step instructions and practical exercises that ensure participants gain real-world experience with the framework. Additionally, the module includes optional advanced topics for those interested in deploying NGIAB in high-performance computing (HPC) environments, enabling scalable applications for large-scale hydrologic modeling projects. By completing this training, users will develop the foundational skills necessary to implement NGIAB for their own hydrologic research and operational forecasting needs, contributing to improved water resource management and flood prediction capabilities.
