hydroGOF is an R package that provides S3 functions implementing both statistical and graphical goodness-of-fit measures between observed and simulated values, mainly oriented to be used during the calibration, validation, and application of hydrological models. Missing values in observed and/or simulated values can removed before the computations. Bugs / comments / questions / collaboration of any kind are very welcomed.

Installation

Installing the latest stable version from CRAN:

install.packages("hydroGOF")

Alternatively, you can also try the under-development version from Github:

if (!require(devtools)) install.packages("devtools")
library(devtools)
install_github("hzambran/hydroGOF")
