The Hydro-Terrestrial Earth System Testbed (HyTEST) project will provide standards, protocols, and data content to deliver a community-based computational testbed that will improve our ability to rapidly research, develop, test, and apply models across a variety of scales. In addition, the project will develop a transparent and adaptive governance process. This governance process will define the basis for assessing the performance of modeling applications. The HyTEST computational testbed and its governance processes will help produce a unified enterprise capacity for hydrologic simulation and prediction capacity.
