The HydroBox is mainly a toolbox used in the V-FOR-WaTer Project. It will be expanded to serve general hydrological data exploration with a future release.

The HydroBox package is a toolbox for hydrological data analysis developed at the Chair of Hydrology at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT).

HydroBox has several submodules called toolboxes, which are a collection of functions and classes for specific purposes. As of this writing, the toolboxes are:

• geostat for geostatistics. Mainly implemented through scikit-gstat and gstools

In development are:

• uncertainty_framwork for uncertainty analysis
• bridget for evapotranspiration tools
