Welcome to Hydra Platform

Hydra Platform is an open-source model platform for network based data management. It facilitates the development of complex resource network models by providing a consistent storage facility for network topology and associated datasets. Hydra Platform is built around a server that exposes all functionality as a web service to which Apps can connect to access data.

User Interfaces

Any organisation can build their own user-interface for Hydra. The University of Manchester offers hydra.org as a free online user interface to allow building river basin simulation models.

Development team
