It is possible to select which type of dataset the system should look for. In addition a search period can be defined.
The selected data set type determines how the search period is used. For example for messages the search period will be used to search for messages which are created within that period.
However when dataset type forecast is selected the search period will be used to search for all forecasts for which the time zero is in between the search period.
The search button will execute a search for datasets in the archive.
The download and import data button will download the data but also import the data after the download.
