Element | Format | Description |
general ComplexType | ||
| dataSetPeriod | string | By default the daily data sets are created. It also possible to create monthly data sets. For operational purposes it is recommend to use daily data sets. For migrating data from other systems to the FEWS archive it might be convenient to export the data in montly data sets. |
archiveFolder | string | Export destination folder, assumes that the account running the FEWS (FSS) application has write access |
relativePeriod | Exports entire the dataset by day. | |
idMap | string | idMap applied to translate internal FEWS identifiers to identifiers that meet NetCDF-CF criteria.E.g. netcdf does not allow a full stop ('.') in the variable name |
| ignoreNonExistingLocationSets | bool | If this option is set FEWS will not log an error when an location set is not configured. |
|---|---|---|
| verifyExportedTimeSeries | bool | if this option is set FEWS will verify if data in the exported netcdf is the same as in the FEWS database. |
netcdfObservedExportActivities ComplexType | ||
fileName | string | should include nc extension, otherwise files will not be read. preferably no spaces |
areaId | string | area to which the dataset belongs |
| sourceId | string | defines the source of the data set |
| exportLocationAttributeAsNetCDFVariable | complex type | Since 2021.01. Adds a variable to the NetCdf file. Name of the variable is the value of ncVariable, the value is the configured location attribute of attributeId. |
ncMetaData | string elem. | optional metadata tags within NetCDF file following CF convention. Supported by the internal catalogue of the THREDDS Data Server |
includeFlags | bool | default=TRUE; if TRUE, a list of flags is stored, each value pointing to the associated flag |
| includeTimeSeriesProperties | bool | default=TRUE, if TRUE the properties of the time series will also be stored in the NetCDF file. |
includeComments | bool | default=TRUE; if TRUE, a list of comments is stored, each value pointing to the associated comment |
thresholdGroupId | string | identifies FEWS ThresholdGroup which is used to detect threshold crossings to be highlighted in the metaData.xml |
timeSeriesSets | FEWS timeseries sets | |
| workflowTimeSeriesSelection | In this tag the time series can selected by using a time series filter from either the current workflow or 1 or more other workflows. | |

Delft-FEWS can export the current configuration to the archive via the ArchiveExportModule (exportConfig activity). The configuration thus is exported as part of the workflow. The associated root directory structure of the Delft-FEWS export for this type of dataset is as follows:
<archiveRoot>/<config>data/config/<areaId>/<yyyymmdd>/
The date refers to the revision date of the configuration. The file name typically holds the revisionId.
The exportArchiveModule.xsd has a dedicated exportConfig section to setup the export of the Configuration (see Figure 4.6). This is due to be revised as the same relativePeriod based export mechanism should be adopted for checking what to export (see Table 4.5).
