CONUS Flash-Flood Benchmark (L1-L3) — agent-friendly, CLI-queryable
Query by level (L1/L2/L3) + US state + time range and download from a bare terminal. Three levels: L1 national NCEI flash-flood episode catalog (1996-2025, 42,466), L2 observation-availability catalog (2021-2025, 5,424), L3 evaluation-ready gauge testbeds (688; 152 strict flash-floods; 47 NCEI-confirmed; 26 with return period >= 2 yr).
TL;DR for agents — manifest = discover, jq = filter, resolve_url = download
BASE=https://huggingface.co/datasets/skyan1002/flash-flood-benchmark-data/resolve/main
curl -sL "$BASE/manifest.jsonl" -o manifest.jsonl # one comma-safe index of every record + file
Every line is one JSON object: record_type (record|artifact), level, ff_episode_id,
gage_id, year, month, begin_date (YYYY-MM-DD), primary_state_abbrev,
all_states_abbrev, plus L3 fields (benchmark_tier, flash_flood_class,
is_strict_flash_flood, selected, lp3_return_period_yr, ...) and, for artifacts,
artifact_kind, resolve_url, bytes, sha256.
Quickstart recipes
# 1) Screen: L3 strict flash floods in TX, July 2025
jq -c 'select(.record_type=="record" and .level=="L3" and .primary_state_abbrev=="TX"
and .is_strict_flash_flood==true and .begin_date>="2025-07-01" and .begin_date<="2025-07-31")
| {testbed_id, lp3_return_period_yr, peak_value}' manifest.jsonl
# 2) Download every file for one testbed (resolve URLs precomputed; -L follows the LFS/CDN redirect)
jq -r 'select(.testbed_id=="FF_2025_07_TX_ep002__08167000" and .record_type=="artifact").resolve_url' \
manifest.jsonl | xargs -n1 curl -L -O
# 3) Just the hydrograph CSVs for the curated set (selected & RP>=2), budget by bytes first
jq -r 'select(.selected==true and .lp3_return_period_yr>=2 and .artifact_kind=="streamflow")
| "\(.bytes)\t\(.resolve_url)"' manifest.jsonl
# 4) L1 episodes that touched TX in 2015 (any-touch via all_states_abbrev)
jq -c 'select(.level=="L1" and (.all_states_abbrev|test("(^|\\|)TX(\\||$)")) and .year==2015)
| {ff_episode_id, primary_state_abbrev, begin_date}' manifest.jsonl
# 5) One-shot curated bundle (26 selected & RP>=2, ~0.2 GB)
curl -L "$BASE/bundles/testbeds_selected26.zip" -o selected26.zip
# 6) A single light file (no zip): one watershed polygon
curl -L "$BASE/testbeds/FF_2025_07_TX_ep002/08167000/watershed.geojson" -o ws.geojson
Optional: server-side filter (no manifest download)
curl -sG https://datasets-server.huggingface.co/filter \
--data-urlencode dataset=skyan1002/flash-flood-benchmark-data \
--data-urlencode config=l3_testbeds --data-urlencode split=train \
--data-urlencode "where=\"primary_state_abbrev\"='TX' AND year=2025 AND is_strict_flash_flood=true" \
--data-urlencode length=100
Rules: double-quote column names, single-quote strings, URL-encode, length<=100 (page with offset), re-index may lag minutes after an update.
Contracts (read before scripting)
- State: filter on
primary_state_abbrev(2-letter). For multi-state episodes useall_states_abbrev(pipe-joined, e.g.NJ|NY|PA). - Time:
begin_date/end_dateareYYYY-MM-DD(lexical compare == date range);year/monthare robust integer handles across levels. - Download: always
curl -L(LFS objects 302-redirect; without -L you get a tiny pointer). Use-C -to resume; check thebytescolumn before multi-GB pulls. - Never
awk -F,/cut -d,the raw CSVs incatalog/raw_csv/— fields contain commas. Usejqonmanifest.jsonl, the Parquet configs, the/filterAPI, or a real CSV parser. - zarr gridded forcing ships inside
packages/<id>.zip; unzip then open withzarr.open_group(NOTxr.open_zarr). The lightmrms_2min_precip_basin_mean.csvis the curl-friendly alternative.
Helper CLI (optional)
ffbench (POSIX sh; needs curl, uses jq if present) wraps the same URLs:
curl -sL "$BASE/ffbench" -o ffbench && chmod +x ffbench
./ffbench query --level l3 --state TX --start 2025-07-01 --end 2025-07-31 --strict
./ffbench get FF_2025_07_TX_ep002__08167000 --out ./tx_testbed
./ffbench bundle selected26
