Abstract
Hydrological network data is increasingly demanded by hydrologists, engineers,
decision makers and the general public. This means for hydrologists, that they
have to process the raw data into quality controlled information in an
efficient way. The hydrological information system WISKI offers a broad range
of standardized quality assurance procedures to fulfil these requirements.
Key words data quality assurance; hydrometric network;
