Priority | Data Type | Comment |
1 | Time Series | sufficient to cover most modules used in flood forecasting systems, including e.g. Mike-11 and NAM |
1 (a) | Time series of grid data | additionaly required for modules with 2D I/O formats (e.g inundation codes) |
2 | Parameters | Module parameters may be passed where the module allows calibration through the NFFS calibration facilities |
2 (a) | Longitudinal profile data | For hydrodynamic modules longitudinal data types may be passed - not a strict requirement. |
3 | Static data (cross sections, branches, etc) | This data is not required for operational forecasting. In exceptional cases data such as on branches may be required (for display purposes), but this need not be passed through the adapter and can be configured as appropriate. |
Does FEWS Support OpenMI? (http://www.openmi.org/)
Unfortunately, the OpenMI standard is not (yet) strict enough to provide a 100% guarantee that any OpenMI modelcomponent can work within a FEWS forecasting environment. However, with an additional agreement between the OpenMI component supplier and FEWS this can be achieved. In a few sentences, we will try to explain this in more detail
