Q: How do I obtain writing permissions for Delft Dashboard?A: To allow Delft Dashboard to run on your system with the appropriate permissions in the default directory, do the following: Q: Is there any documentation available on Delft Dashboard?A: Currently, hardly any documentation is available, but we are working on it. For the moment, please have a look at the Delft Dashboard webinar for a first introduction into the tool (). Q: Are the datasets used in Delft Dashboard open source?A: As far as we know the datasets that are now in Dashboard are open source and free for use. However, if you feel that copyrights are violated, please let us know. Then we remove these datasets from the program. Q: How can I add my own (bathymetry) datasets to Delft Dashboard?A: If you have open data that you think is useful for Delft Dashboard users, please let us know, then we will add this data to our OpenDAP server and link it to Dashboard. If you wanna add your own bathymetry data (and not open it up for everybody, because it is confidential for example), you need to tile your bathymetry data using the tiling toolbox in DelftDashboard (supports ASCII data). Once the data is tiled, you need to refer to this dataset in the file bathymetry.xml, which you can find in the Delft Dashboard data directory. Q: Does Delft Dashboard support curvilinear grids?A: Although it is not possible to create curvilinear grids with Delft Dashboard, the program supports operations on curvilinear grids that have been created separately with RGFGRID. These grids can be loaded into Delft Dashboard. Q: Does Delft Dashboard support flexible mesh (unstructured) grids?A: This functionality is not fully supported yet. We are working on the implementation of the new Delft Flexible Mesh (FM) model, but this is still under development. Q: Does Delft Dashboard support Delft3D WAVE?A: Delft3D WAVE is not supported yet, but we are working on it. We expect the implementation to be ready in the next couple of months. Q: Does Delft Dashboard support plotting in Google Earth?A: Delft Dashboard is mainly a pre-processing tool and not really focusing on post-processing. For post-processing in Google Earth we refer to the GooglePlot (Matlab) toolbox that is available under OpenEarthTools: OpenEarth developer in five easy steps. |
