GIS Weasel Problem Sets

This page contains numerous problem sets associated with both the GIS Weasel and the Modular Modeling System (MMS). The problem sets have typically been developed for introductory week-long classes in watershed modeling and our software. Basic computer literacy and knowledge of hydrology are obviously important to understanding the problem sets.

While we have attempted to modify the problem sets to be generic enough that the they can be completed on any machine, there may be instances where certain functionality or data is not available to the user. If the user experiences any problems, they are encouraged to contact the corresponding author for the problem set directly. The email address of the corresponding author is embedded in the header of each problem set. Support is available on a limited basis.
