HydroShare is an online, production collaboration system for sharing of and collaboration around hydrologic data, analytical tools, and models, which are “resources” defined by standardized content types for data formats and models commonly used in hydrology. With over 2000 registered users, in HydroShare one can: share one’s data and models with colleagues; manage who has access to the content that is shared; share, access, visualize and manipulate a broad set of hydrologic data types and models; use the web services application programming interface (API) to program automated and client access; publish data and models and obtain a citable digital object identifier (DOI); aggregate your resources into collections; discover and access data and models published by others; and use web apps in an app store to visualize, analyze and run models on data in HydroShare. In this presentation we will present how the integrated Rule-Oriented Data System (iRODS, see http://irods.org/) - an open-source distributed data management system with worldwide adoption - is being used to manage data content within and beyond HydroShare.
