The Tomcat WaterML2 service is hosted in a Tomcat service container. This service allows REST clients to interact with a WaterML2  service that is connected to a FEWS system through the FEWS DataAccessComponent.

Installing a WaterML2 Service

The file DAC installation guide (final).doc describes how to install a Tomcat instance containing a DataAccessComponent instance. Once these steps are completed the WaterMlService.WAR can be deployed using a context xml file such as WaterMLService.xml

Configuration

The are two levels of configuration. The first is the DataAccessComponent which is a FEWS client hosted as a GlobalResource in Tomcat. The DataAccessComponent uses the regular FEWS configuration which falls outside the scope of this documentation. The second level of configuration is what is used by the FewsPiService webservice which has been deployed in Tomcat. To deploy this webservice a context XML file is required which looks like this:
