No evidence of any special notability and none claimed. Lacks any significant sources and appears to be just another modelling tool.  Velella  Velella Talk   19:48, 28 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

HydroGeoSphere is an extremely important numerical model used by the hydrology community. It has a long set of publications http://www.aquanty.com/publication/ and is the current state-of-the-art numerical model. HGS started in 2000 and is still being developed by several research teams. I will add more citations in the upcoming week Jhdavison Jhdavison (talk) 23:54, 28 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Google book search gives 109 results and Google scholar gives it 757. Are there any textbooks or scientific publications on university websites(other than those that created it) that mention it? Dream Focus 06:47, 2 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Also there are additional citations to FRAC3DVS, which is the same software before being renamed (and oddly not mentioned in the article).+mt 00:25, 5 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.
