Hydrologic and climate data measured under varying field conditions and multiple sensors are known to be plagued by the problem of data anomalies and outliers. Techniques for identifying outliers and methods for performance evaluation of anomaly detection methods are critical for task of maintaining unbiased, clean and error-free homogeneous data. The HDET is a tool for identification of anomalies from hydro-meteorological and environmental data collected by several national, state and private agencies. The tool uses a number of several statistical and data mining anomaly detection techniques. These echniques are built based on traditional approaches which include: 1) classification-based, 2) near-neighbor-based; 3) clustering-based; 4) statistical; 5) information-theoretic and 6) spectral. The information-theoretic and spectral techniques are being investigated and implemented.<\/span> <\/em><\/h4>\n<p>Main Module of HDET :<\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"color: #808080\">The module consists of several sub-modules and they include: 1) Data Input; 2) Exploratory Data Analysis; 3) Evaluate; 4) Performance Measures; 5) Reports and 6) Help.<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/faculty.eng.fau.edu\/ramesh\/files\/2015\/03\/HDET-main11.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone  wp-image-388\" src=\"http:\/\/faculty.eng.fau.edu\/ramesh\/files\/2015\/03\/HDET-main11.png\" alt=\"HDET-main11\" width=\"519\" height=\"375\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The architecture of HDET is shown below :<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/faculty.eng.fau.edu\/ramesh\/files\/2015\/03\/HDET-1A1.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone  wp-image-386\" src=\"http:\/\/faculty.eng.fau.edu\/ramesh\/files\/2015\/03\/HDET-1A1.png\" alt=\"HDET-1A1\" width=\"517\" height=\"231\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"color: #333333\">Exploratory Data Analysis (EDA) sub-Module<\/span><\/h4>\n<h4><em><span style=\"color: #999999\">The EDA sub-module shown below provide visual and quantitative details of the data (e.g.<\/span><\/em><br \/>\n<em><span style=\"color: #999999\">stage data).
