Coefficient set or coefficient set functions

TODO

When using coefficient set functions (available since build 30246), the value elements can contain tags between "@" signs (e.g. "@NUMBER@") that refer to location attributes that are defined in the locationSets configuration file. The tags are replaced by actual values. These values can be different for different locations and time periods. See 22 Locations and attributes defined in CSV files, Shape-DBF files or external tables for more information.

Configuration examples

Configuration example:

<transformation id="GenerationTidalConstituentsTest">
	<generation>
		<tidalConstituents>
			<coefficientSet>
				<constituent name="M2" amplitude="2.5" phase="1080"/>
				<constituent name="S1" amplitude="-1.001" phase="-45.001"/>
			</coefficientSet>
			<outputVariable>
				<variableId>output</variableId>
			</outputVariable>
		</tidalConstituents>
	</generation>
</transformation>

The example below uses coefficientSetFunctions (available since build 30246, i.e. since stable build 2011.01). Here the coefficients are defined in coefficientSetFunctions, where NAME, AMP and PHASE refer to location number attributes that are defined in the locationSets configuration file. In this case only specify one constituent to link the name, amplitude and phase to the corresponding columns in the locationAttributes file:

<transformation id="GenerationTidalConstituentsWithLocationAttributesTest">
	<generation>
		<tidalConstituents>
			<coefficientSetFunctions>
				<constituent name="@NAME@" amplitude="@AMP@" phase="@PHASE@"/>
			</coefficientSetFunctions>
			<outputVariable>
				<variableId>output</variableId>
			</outputVariable>
		</tidalConstituents>
	</generation>
</transformation>

When using coefficientSetFunctions, the location attributes file can contain multiple rows with constituents per location, e.g.:
