U.S. Geological Survey: Assessing Flow Measurement Instruments Janice M. Fulford Chief, HIF Testing Section 11/24/2018 U.S. Geological Survey, Hydrologic Instrumentation Facility

Instrumentation Assessments Office of Surface Water – policy on flow measurement instruments Water Science Centers – ad hoc & projects Internal Specialty Workgroups – such as HAWG Instrumentation Committee - ICOM Hydrologic Instrumentation Facility – Testing Section

Instrumentation Standards Techniques of Water Resources Investigations Water Supply Paper by Rantz and others Official Memoranda, Technical Offices Official Reports – SIR, WRIR, and OFR

Testing Standards Dependent on Needs & Investigator Simple comparisons with existing instrumentation in field Simple “office” tests Laboratory tests with traceable standards/references Rigorous field experiments Emerging demand for uncertainty analysis of measurements

Instrumentation Information Official Memoranda (Office of Surface Water) Official Publications (TWRI, WSP, SIR) List servers (HAWG) Web Sites – internal only & public Internal Conferences & Meetings WRD Instrumentation News (internal) Conference presentations & Journals
