Introduction
Since FEWS 2017.02 all FEWS Web Services have been unified into one installation package (FewsWebServices.war). The following WebServices are available with this installation using HTTP(s):
- PI-XML SOAP Web Service: The PI-XML SOAP Service can be accessed by the SOAP protocol.
- PI-XML REST Web Service: The PI-XML REST Service provides a REST based interface using the REST protocol.
- WaterML Web Service: The WaterML2 Web Service can be accessed by the WaterML protocol.
- Digital Delta Web Service: The Digitale Delta Web Service can be accessed by the REST protocol.
- Umaquo Web Service: The Umaquo Web Service can be accessed by the SOAP protocol.
Tomcat Installation
To install the FEWS Web Services at least the Tomcat 7 application server is required. See: https://tomcat.apache.org/download-70.cgi The requirements of the Java version to be used for Tomcat is the same as for the FEWS version that is being used.
It is important to adjust the JVM memory settings of tomcat. For Linux based installations,
On CentOS these settings can be set in the /usr/share/tomcat6/conf/tomcat6.conf file.
- JAVA_OPTS="-Dgeonetwork.dir=/var/lib/geonetwork_data -Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 -Xms128m -Xmx712m -XX:PermSize=128m -XX:MaxPermSize=128m -Dgeonetwork.search.temporal.extent.overrule=true"
On windows the JAVA_OPTS can be added to the sentenv.bat file in the tomcat bin directory.
