TSTool Documentation S patial Data Integration
<br /> S patial Data Integration - 5
<br />The following example illustrates the time series to map layer configuration file:
<br />
<br /># This file allows time series in TSTool to b e linked to stations in spatial
<br /># data layers. The columns are used as appropriate, depending on the direction
<br /># of the select (from time series list or from the map).
<br />#
<br /># This file has been tested with the \CDSS \GIS \CO \co_TSTool.gvp file. Not all
<br /># poss ible combinations of time series and map layers have been defined - only
<br /># enough to illustrate the configuration.
<br /># Additional attributes need to be added to the point files to allow more
<br /># extensive functionality. For example, if attributes for data int erval (time
<br /># step) and data source are added to the attributes, then a definition query
<br /># can be defined on the layer for displays to use the same data file. The
<br /># configuration below can then use the different names to configure the link
<br /># to time serie s.
<br />#
<br /># This file is discussed in the TSTool documentation.
<br />#
<br /># TS_InputType - the time series input type, as used in TSTool
<br /># TS_DataType - the data type shown in TSTool, specific to an input type
<br /># For example, TSTool uses "Streamflow" for HydroBase, whe reas
<br /># for other input types a different data type string may be used.
<br /># TS_Interval - time series interval of interest (e.g.,"Month", "Day", "1Hour"
<br /># "Irregular")
<br /># Layer_Name - the layer name used in the map layer list
<br /># Layer_Location - the attribute that is used to identify a location, to be
<br /># matched against the time series data location
<br /># Layer_DataType - the attribute that is used to indicate the data type for a
<br /># station's time series (CURRENTLY NOT USED - UNDER EVALUATION)
<br /># Layer_Interval - t he attribute that is used to indicate the interval for a
<br /># station's time series
<br /># Layer_DataSource - the attribute that is used to indicate the data source for
<br /># a station's time series.
<br />#
<br /># When matching time series in the TSTool time series query list with features
<br /># on the map, the TS_* values are matched with the time series identifier
<br /># values and the Layer_* attributes are matched against specific time series.
<br />#
<br /># Data layers are listed from largest interval to smallest.

<br />Example Time Series to Map Layer Lookup File
<br />
<br />The intent of the file is to allow lookup of map layers from time series and to allow lookup of time series
<br />from map layers. The ability to perform these actions depends on the number of layers in the map and the
<br />attributes in map layers. For example, in the last two lines of the above example, historical streamflow
<br />time series are both linked to a single “Streamflow Gages – Historical” layer on the map. Consequently,
<br />i t will not be possible from the map layer to indicate to TSTool that specifically day or month interval
