Summary

This example performes import and visualization of TUDelft disdrometer data (http://www.disdrometrics.com/). TUDelft disdrometer data delivers rain in mm and dropsize distribution (-, number of drops per class). For more info: n:\Projects\1201500\1201946\E. Correspondence\Memo\1201946-033-VEB-0001-v0.1-m-SUW - Smart Urban Water.docx

Description

Within the Smart Urban Water project, part of the European project "Climate KIC", rainfall and dropsize distribution data from the TUDelft disdrometer had been imported and visualized in Delft-FEWS. Import format is WaterML 2.0.

The used procedure can be useful for import of other sources of rain data including dropsize distribution or more in general for other data with information of internal classes' distribution.

Configuration Steps for the import of WaterML 2.0 rain and dropsize distribution data

Rain data (mm) and number of drops per class (-) can be imported each as independent timeserie with the import waterml time series parser. For more information on WaterML 2.0 import configuration and for downloading the xml parser see page WaterML2Import

In XML it will look like this:

Because of practical reasons only two classes are imported in the above example. As many classes as needed can be imported.

It is important to keep in mind the following correspondence in WaterML 2.0 (import file) and FEWS tags:

Configuration Steps for the visualization of WaterML 2.0 rain and dropsize distribution data

Dropsize distribution (in % per class) can then visualized per timestep as 100% stacked plot, together with rain using the stackPlot="true" option in the DisplayGroups file. Because of practical reasons only two classes are displayed, in the example. As many classes as imported can be displayed in the stacked plot.
