Community Hydrologic Prediction System (CHPS) Documentation
CHPS is a collection of software packages tailored to meet the National Weather Service (NWS) River Forecast Centers (RFCs) operational requirements. In general it comprises a set of infrastructure software, a specific suite of hydrologic and hydraulic software models, and a set of custom RFC configurations.
