Welcome to HydroServer 101!

This is the very first tutorial in our series and is designed for absolute beginners.

In this tutorial, you will:

• Sign up for a free user account on our public playground instance
• Create a monitoring site to represent a physical monitoring location
• Set up a datastream to describe what you are measuring
• Load a sample dataset
• View your data directly in the HydroServer interface

By the end, you will have a working site and datastream and a solid foundation for exploring more advanced features. Let’s get started!
