- Conforming to the conventions will make it much easier to setup a synchronising client or MC-MC synch later.
- When creating a database replica, synchLevels can be are used to control what which TimeSeries are copied into database replicato be replicated. Deselecting synchLevels during replication obviously means the database replica will not contain all TimeSeries but it can be created much smaller and faster.
SynchLevel conventions
synchLevel | description | application |
---|---|---|
0 | All (scalar) data from a forecast run. Since 2012.02 this is the default for simulated. Before 2012.02 this synch level was used as default for all types | all systems |
1 | Scalar time series imported from telemetry. Since 2012.02 this is the default for external timeseries. NB the length of data synchronised will depend on the login-profile selected. Typically this will be data generated up to 7 days ago | all systems |
2 | All grid data from a forecast run (e.g. Flood Mapping results) | all systems |
3 | Large volumes of scalar data such as CatAvg data (forecasts, actuals & NWP) | all systems |
4 | Used for data imported infrequently such as Astronomical or Climatological data. Since 2022.02 also automatically used for RatingCurves (TimeSeriesValueType 5). | all systems |
5 | Data edited on OC. Since 2012.02 this synch level is automatically used on OC. Configuration no longer required. | all systems |
6 | (small) Grid data imported from external forecast (synchronised to OC) | all systems |
7 | Grid data imported from external forecast (synchronised to FSS & MC only, and not to OC) | all systems |
8 | Performance indicator time series. These are time series that do not need to be synchronised with a short synchronisation interval or when a forecaster logs in with a minimum profile. | all systems |
9 | Temporary time series not requiring synchronisation. This synch level is automatically used for time series type temporary | all systems |
11 | Specific ModuleDataset files, which should be downloaded and activated directly after logging in and after each upload of a new version of the file (synch to OC). This is used in the Configuration manager when uploading the module dataset | most systems |
16 | (large) Grid data imported from external forecast (synch. to OC) | NFFS: to distinguish between small (synchLevel 6) and large grids |
20 | WarmStates (to be specified if there is need to synch to OC - needed for local runs in IFD) | all systems |
21 | Aggregated grids (flows/heads) forecasts | used in NGMS |
22 | Grids data (heads) timeseries | used in NGMS |
23 | Grids data (flows) timeseries | used in NGMS |
30 | Timeseries modifiers | used in CHPS (NWS) |
90-100 | Reserved | used internally |
