Abstract
Over a period of many years, the Hydrologic Engineering Center (HEC) has supported a variety of statistical packages that perform frequency analysis and other statistical computations. Currently, the programs that receive the most use are HEC-FFA (Flow Frequency Analysis) and STATS. HEC-FFA performs Bulletin 17B analyses on peak flow data and STATS is used to perform a variety of analysis ranging from graphical analysis to flow duration analysis. Two other packages that are still supported are REGFRQ and MLRP. REGFRQ performs regional frequency analysis and MLRP is a multiple linear regression analysis tool. All of these individual pieces of software are currently being rejuvenated and incorporated into a single piece of software called Statistical Software Package (HEC-SSP). In addition to incorporation of the existing software, additional capabilities are planned. These include coincident frequency analysis, duration analysis, and volume-frequency analysis, among others.
