General

Configuration of location icons can be used to help identify the different types of locations on the map display. This is an optional configuration item. If it is not available then the default location icon will be used to all locations. When available on the file system, the name of the XML file is for example: LocationIcons 1.00 default.xml

...

ID of the icon to be used in the display for this group of locations. This id is the same as the name of the icon file, without the ".gif" file extension.

Info
titleThreshold crossing icon

The shown location icon is not what you configured here? perhaps the location is part of a ThresholdValueSet. When a threshold is crossed, the location icon as configured in this module will be shown instead of the configured icon in LocationIcons


locationId/locationSetId

The locationId is a reference to the location for which icon is used. Either one or more locationId's may be defined, or a single locationSetId.


Default Icons

During the 2021.02 release a new default set of icons were introduced. As of 2021.02 svg icons are supported by Delft-FEWS. 

This new set of icons follows a color scheme which improves visibillity for people with a color vision deficiency and allows for better visibillity of thresholds.
