Everglades Depth Estimation Network (EDEN) for Support of Biological and Ecological Assessments
Providing real-time hydrologic tools for biological and ecological assessments for adaptive management
| What's New @ EDEN |
|---|
EDEN water-level surfaces can now be produced on a 50 meter grid and combined with the recently published digital elevation model (DEM) to create water-depth surfaces at this same resolution. You can access the updated EDEN R package here: https://code.usgs.gov/water/eden/eden.
Real-time 50 m water-level surfaces can be found on the EDEN real-time page. Users can subtract the 50 m DEM to calculate water depth.
New ETree publication
ETree is a decision support tool that shows near-daily and historical flooding status on hundreds of tree islands in Florida’s Everglades. Check out the new publication documenting the collaborative process to develop this web application: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ecolind.2026.114640
The Everglades Depth Estimation Network (EDEN) is an integrated network of water-level gages, interpolation models, and applications that generates daily water-level data and derived hydrologic data across the freshwater part of the greater Everglades landscape. The Comprehensive Everglades Restoration Plan (CERP) through the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and U.S. Geological Survey Greater Everglades Priority Ecosystem Sciences provides support for EDEN and for the goal of providing consistent, documented, and readily accessible hydrologic and ground-elevation data for the Everglades.
