With daily exports of observed data per area, the number of small datasets on the file system may increases quickly. This has several disadvantages as the harvesting process will take longer processing many small datasets, while the performance of seamless integration (and webservices) will also drop. Therefore, an amalgamate process is developed which merges the daily observation files into one observation file per month. Currently, this amalgamate process is executed from the Fews-application side by an FSS by using the following configuration. Specify the relativePeriod in such way that the observed datafiles are stable and are not updated anymore. E.g. use one or two months of delay

Delft-FEWS can export external forecast time series to the archive via the ArchiveExportModule (exportExternalForecast activity).
For external forecasts a dataset is generated for every area for every source for every forecast. The associated directory structure of the Delft-FEWS export for this type of dataset is as follows:
<archiveRoot>/<yyyy>/<MM>/<areaId>/<dd> /external_forecasts/<sourceId>_<ExtForecastTime>
The exportArchiveModule.xsd has a dedicated exportExternalForecast section to configure the time series that need to be archived (see Figure 4.4). Table 4.3 documents the associated elements:

...


Delft-FEWS can export the current configuration to the archive via the ArchiveExportModule (exportConfig activity). The configuration thus is exported as part of the workflow. The associated root directory structure of the Delft-FEWS export for this type of dataset is as follows:
<archiveRoot>/<config>/<areaId>/<yyyymmdd>/
The date refers to the revision date of the configuration. The file name typically holds the revisionId.
The exportArchiveModule.xsd has a dedicated exportConfig section to setup the export of the Configuration (see Figure 4.6). This is due to be revised as the same relativePeriod based export mechanism should be adopted for checking what to export (see Table 4.5).
