DELFT-FEWS is a location oriented system. All time series data must be referenced to a (geographic) location. Scalar time series need no additional information. For longitudinal time series data, each point in the vector must be referenced to a location in a branch structure. This location must be identified by its coordinate within the branch (chainage), and may also be defined by its geographic coordinates within the coordinate system used. An example of a branch is given below.
The FEWS configuration file that stores all information of branches is called the:
Branches 1.00 default.xml
More information on the branches file can be found on:
"http://public.wldelft.nl/display/FEWSDOC/05+Branches"
Each new branch added to the Branches XML file has an ID, this ID must refer to a location ID in the Locations definition.
