15 Connect external modules with a model adapter

A model adapter is the interface between Delft-FEWS and an external model (or module), either using the Published Interface (i.e. PI XML) or NetCDF. This pages contains links to on how create your own model adapter, how to use a model adapter and the available manuals for existing model adapters. For a complete overview of the available model adapters visit Overview of all models linked to Delft-Fews

Creating a model adapter

• Developing a FEWS Adapter based on NetCDF-CF — Since 2014.01
  • Example code: Reading and writing netcdf gridded data with Java
  • Example code: Reading and writing netcdf scalar data with Java 
• Developing a FEWS Adapter based on PI XML
