IntroductionThe Delft-FEWS configuration guide provides the advanced user of DELFT-FEWS with the information required to set-up and maintain a configuration of Delft-FEWS. The objective of the guide is to be used both as a reference manual during the development and maintenance of an implementation of Delft-FEWS, as well as to provide some of the background philosophy on how to go about setting up a forecasting system. It is expected that the reader of this guide has a basic understanding of Delft-FEWS and its structure. To understand how to configure Delft-FEWS, a good understanding of the structure of the configuration is required. The first part of this guide therefore gives an introduction into the different parts of configuration. In the second part of the guide the concepts used in Delft-FEWS for handling data are explained.Section 3 gives details on configuration of system components such as display settings while section 4 describes the various , see the following table: section | description | topic example |
