Qube has been developed by Wallingford HydroSolutions in partnership with the Environment Agency for England. Qube presents a web-based evolution of its predecessor LowFlows Enterprise, which has been used as a best practice tool for estimating flows in ungauged catchments by the Environment Agency, Natural Resources Wales, the Scottish Environment Protection Agency, the Northern Ireland Environment Agency and UK water companies.

Qube moves beyond the estimation of natural and influenced flow statistics within ungauged catchments. Qube enables the seamless modelling of both natural and influenced flow statistics and time series anywhere, where the only distinction is the difference in accuracy between gauged and ungauged catchments.

Within this web-based system you can explore a rich mapping interface and search by place, catchment and feature names or grid references. Define any catchment (over 0.1 km²) and estimate annual and monthly mean flows and flow duration curve statistics and daily time series. The system enables the incorporation and review of local gauging station data, as well as review of spot gauge data. In addition to the rich user interface for interrogating data, you also export CSV tables of flows, as well as charts, maps and catchment boundary shapefiles.
