The purpose of this article is to present the results of research by scientists of the Ukrainian Hydrometeorological Institute on the development of a national base of regulatory documents in the field of land hydrology and ensuring the hydrological activities of the Hydrometeorological Service of Ukraine: state standards. Ukraine and guiding documents on conducting hydrological instrumental observations and works.
The state standard of Ukraine “DSTU 3517-97 Land Hydrology. Terms and definitions of basic concepts”, which entered into force in 1997, become the first regulatory document in the area of hydrometeorological activities. Almost 300 hydrological terms and their definitions were included in this standard.
In the following years, there was a long pause in the development of regulatory documents from the hydrological field of activity, that was caused by the limitation of financial and personnel resources of the Institute, which were involved in development of regulatory documents from the meteorological field of activity.
The active development of hydrological regulatory documents began again in 2018. During this period, the following documents were developed and implemented in practice in accordance with the established procedure the “Instructions for hydrometeorological stations and posts. Hydrological observations at posts” (2020), The national standard of Ukraine DSTU 3517:2024 “Land hydrology. Terms and definitions of basic concepts” (the deep re-developed version of the standard DSTU 3517-97), “Instructions for hydrometeorological stations and posts. Hydrological river works and observations at stations and posts. Organization of river observations and works at stations and posts” (2024). These regulatory documents replaced the corresponding Russian-language documents of the former USSR.
By the end of 2026, the development of the following two regulatory documents should be completed: first one – “Instructions for hydrometeorological stations and posts. Hydrological observations at stations and posts. Determination of hydrographic characteristics” and second one – “Instructions for hydrometeorological stations and posts. Organization and conduct of observations of evaporation from the water surface.”
The methodological approaches used in the development of these regulatory documents, as well as their main provisions, are considered in the article.
Key words: land hydrology, hydrological observations and works, regulatory documents.
