The philosophy: Local runs are used by the operator to interactively run a workflow on the operator client, check the results and potentially optimize a forecast by means of modifiers. Once the operator is satisfied with the forecast results, a server run is started and the results are sharedcan be shared between operators. Local runs will not store any time series in the central Delft-FEWS database, only time series from server runs are stored in the central database.
This is implemented as follows:
- Local run results are only available in the local OC and are removed from the database when the application is closed.
- Server run results (and the modifiers of this run) are stored in the central database and are available from any OC.
- Local run results overrule server runsrun results on the operator client. Even when a server run is started after a local run. This means server run results won't be visible in displays.
The fact that local run results overrule server runs means run results mean that the server run results won't be visible in graphs or spatial display, even for the operator who started the server run. As As this behavior is not always wanted, this can be changed with the topology chosen in the IFD. Below are two different approaches to this.
