The following section provides an explanation of all the columns in the interpolate sheet which is part ModuleConfigFile generation spreadsheet:

Column Name

Explanation of contents

MI_PREFIX

The ModuleInstance prefix is the model abbreviation and is applied to all elements in the configuration files where the model prefix is used (file names, etc)

MI_SOURCE

This is the ModuleInstance source and refers to a unique part of the ModuleInstanceId which is used to store the data. It should refer to the ModuleInstanceId which was used to create the original data

PAR_in

This column contains a reference to the input parameter to be processed. The name of the parameter should be taken from the parameters.xml

NAME

This is the name of the InterpolationSet. This element should be unique for each interpolationSet in the file. It is also used ot easily identify an interpolationSet

METHOD

This refers to the interpolation method used. The options used in NGMS are: closestdistance, sum and inputAverageTimesOutputArea

LOC_in

This column is referring to the locationID of the data which is input for the interpolation. Locations and LocationSet are mutually exclusive. Either one or the other should be filled in

LOCSET_in

This column is referring to the locationSet of the data which is input for the interpolation. Locations and LocationSet are mutually exclusive. Either one or the other should be filled in

VALTYPE_in

This refers to the type of data used as input for the interpolation. The options are scalar, polygon, grid and longitudinalprofile. Typically a grid is used as input

PAR_out

This column contains a reference to the output parameter being created. The name of the parameter should be taken from the parameters.xml

LOC_out

This column is referring to the locationID of the data which is the output from the interpolation. Locations and LocationSet are mutually exclusive. Either one or the other should be filled in

LOCSET_out

This column is referring to the locationSet of the data which is output from the interpolation. Locations and LocationSet are mutually exclusive. Either one or the other should be filled in

VALTYPE_out

This refers to the type of data produced as output from the interpolation. The options are scalar, polygon, grid and longitudinalprofile

SYNCH

This column is used to specify the synchronisation level of the data that is being created and stored in the database. More information about the synchronisation levels can be found in Step 7. ModuleInstances (ModuleConfigfiles)

TIMESTEP

This is referring to the the TimeStep used for the data being created. It can either be nonequidistant or DaysOfMonth

MULTIPLIER

Defines a multiplier to be applied in the processing step to convert positive values to negative and visaversa
