Justin Bowen, PhD and Founder of HydroScapes Analytics, joins us to discuss his dissertation and exciting new model for spatially mapping water rights, water rights distribution systems, and watershed conditions. This model brings together water right information, soil moisture conditions, OpenET evapotranspiration data, real time gauge measurements, and existing hydrologic models to assess watershed impacts of efficiency and conservation projects. The applications for this kind of dynamic information are endless!! Good work Justin!
