Launching Delft FEWS
The Application Launcher should be used to start Delft FEWS. On start-up a user must select a profile and enter the required password.
There are four profiles with each of them its own password:
- Viewer
- Forecaster
- Configuration Manager
- System Manager
The Viewer profile is the most restricted profile, a user with this profile can only launch the FEWS Webserver. The System Manager Profile, on the other hand, has all the rights to launch Stand Alone and Operator Clients, launch the Configuration Manager and use the Admin Interface. Depending on the configuration of FEWS all or some profiles may be present.
A screen dump of the FEWS Application Launcher for the National Flood Forecasting System for England & Wales is presented as an example below.
