Introducing

HydroField

10 hydrometric data collection forms. Discharge, level surveys, under-ice measurement, station inspection, QA/QC — all on your phone, all offline. Stop writing it down twice.

The current workflow

Six steps to get one measurement into the system

1 Measure at site 2 Write on paper 3 Drive to office 4 Transcribe to spreadsheet 5 Enter into desktop tool 6 Upload to AQUARIUS

Every hand-off introduces errors. Every re-entry takes time. HydroField collapses this to two steps: measure and sync.

Try It Yourself — No Sign Up

Your entire field visit. One app.

Purpose-built for hydrometric data collection — not a generic form builder with a water theme.

Offline-First. Always.

Everything stored on-device. Background sync with automatic retry when you're back in range. Built for remote gauge sites where cell service doesn't exist.

Discharge Computation

Mid-section method with real-time calculation. Salt dilution processing built in. ADCP import for SonTek M9, S5, IQ and Teledyne RiverRay, RiverPro, StreamPro, RioPro. FlowTracker2 ADV support. QRev XML import.

Level Surveys

Complete benchmark survey workflow with automatic closure calculation. Staff gauge readings, water level tables, benchmark checks. The math is done before you leave the site.

Under-Ice & Winter Operations

Dedicated under-ice measurement form with ice drilling records, thickness measurement, and velocity correction factors. Purpose-built for winter field operations.

Station Inspection & Control

WSC 9-point control condition assessment. Equipment checklist covering 14 items, safety assessment, and maintenance tracking. Document your entire site condition every visit.

Team Management & Review

Three roles — Technician, Reviewer, Admin. Supervisory review workflows let managers approve field data before submission. Full audit trail on every measurement.

QA/QC & Data Quality

Data quality grading from Excellent to Poor with quality flags and automated checks. Validation at the point of measurement, not weeks later in the office. Mandatory fields catch gaps before you leave.

AQUARIUS Integration

Structured export compatible with the AQUARIUS Field Data Plugin Framework. Field visit data formatted for direct import into your data management system.
