See #118471 for the requirement being addressed and #115608 for the use case with slide examples. We need to identify how the data can be obtained, in what format, and then identify a preferred solution for obtaining it and storing it to support a WRES evaluation.

This ticket can be resolved once we have designed a solution and implemented it. Leaving as normal priority and in the backlog pending prioritization of the NWM team requirements for use case #115608.

Generic guess at staff hours required for new sources of observations: 128 hours. Would need to rely on the NWM team expertise in obtaining and using that data.

More information would be required to present even a rudimentary estimate of this one. I think the minimum information required would be the source of data and how it presents to the public (e.g., a web service), if at all.
