Introduction

MeteoAlarmCap is a XML export format following the Common Alerting Protocol standard: http://docs.oasis-open.org/emergency/cap/v1.2/CAP-v1.2-os.html . The export is used for http://www.rijkswaterstaat.nl/kaarten/waterstand-tov-nap.aspx.

...

The configuration of the MeteoAlarmCap export module is shown in the following example.

There is 1 The following are the required properties that has have to be configured:

meteo-alarm-soap-service : the url of the soap service to post the cap files to. For example: http://www.meteoalarm.eu:8080/functions/webservices/capimport.php?wsdl
dolibarrkey: key needed by the soap service
username: username needed by the soap service
password: password needed by the soap service
area-code

The area code is one of the following codes that should be available as externalLocationId in the idMap (only one code is required if a locationset is configured in the timeseriesset):

"GR" (Groningen)
"FL" (Flevoland)
"ZH" (Zuid-Holland)
"ZE" (Zeeland)
"NH" (Noord-Holland)
"LB" (Limburg)
"NB" (Noord-Brabant)
"GL" (Gelderland)
"UT" (Utrecht)
"OV" (Overijssel)
"FR" (Friesland)
"DR" (Drenthe)
"WAE" (Waddeneilanden)
"WAD" (Waddenzee)
"IJG" (IJsselmeergebied)

The following properties are optional and can be used to change the default values. The default values are given:

"status" : "Test"
"source" : "KNMI"
"scope" : "Public"
"certainty" : "Likely"
"category" " "Met"
"sender" : "http://www.knmi.nl/nederland-nu/weer/waarschuwingen"
"sender-name" : "KNMI Koninklijk Nederlands Meteorologisch Instituut"
"contact" : "informatiecentrum@knmi.nl"
"urgency" : "Future"
"awareness-type" : "12"
- The following awareness-types are supported:
  "00" : "1; wind"
  "01" : "10; rain";
  "02": "2; snow-ice"
  "03" : "3; thunderstorm"
  "07" : "4; fog"
  "12" : "12; flooding"
  "16" : "5; high-temperature"
  "17" : "6; low-temperature"

For exporting description and instruction the MeteoalarmCap export relies on location attributes.

As MeteoAlarmCap can generate multiple CAP files per forecast, 'exportFileName' create a folder that includes all exported CAP files. 'exportFileName' should be different for each export (e.g. each RWSoS system).

meteo-alarm-soap-service - contains the url where the request should be sent. Compulsory field.

username, password and tokenUrl are necessay fields to access an authorisation token.

Exporting Updates and Cancels

When it is desired to update existing alerts instead of adding new ones a "feedsUrl" property can be configured:

The export will read from this url what the existing alerts are and compare them with the data for the export.

When there is data for a non existing alert, a new alert will be exported.

When there is different data for an existing alert and update will be send.

overrulingIdentifierElement

Because during development there have been differences detected between the production and test server an overrulingIdentifierElement property has been introduced which functions as a signal that some information needs to be taken from different elements or slightly corrected. So for the export to the test server the <string key="overrulingIdentifierElement" value="id"/> needs to be configured, for the production server this property should not be present.
