Notice ID: 140G0323Q0069 Description The Data Section in the Oregon Water Science Center (ORWSC) has an extensive DataBase (DB) of Hydrologic Information that is served to the public. Errors and omissions in the DB require correction to be made to meet USGS standards and policy. Additionally, the database has been migrated from the Automated Data Processing System (ADAPS) to Aquarius and requires periodic post-migration cleanup tasks as required by the national Aquarius Work Group. The Peak Flow File (PFF) stores and makes available peak flow information for each stream gaging station on the NWISweb. The purpose is to remove or correct erroneous data (manually or with scripts) and restore missing published data and make them available to the public via NWISweb. The primary objective is to provide a DB that meets the policies established by the USGS Office of Surface Water (OSW) and ensure that the migration of data from the ADAPS DB to the Aquarius DB has been made, and post migration cleanup in Aquarius is complete. The DB contains daily and instantaneous values for over 900 sites covering a timespan for over 100 years for some sites. A secondary but highly important task is the cleanup and quality assurance of the PFF database. The PFF database is a high-profile database that reflects and highlights the quality of USGS data collection programs; as such, the accuracy, characterization and completeness of the data are critical...
