Has anyone prepared an agent to import realtime river stage (HG) and river flow (Q) for Water Survey of Canada stream gauge stations? https://wateroffice.ec.gc.ca/search/real_time_e.html.

Hi Iryna,

We've done some work with precipitation to calculate climate normals and all the related thresholds. Still haven't finished with standard graphs, but there is a parameter template that you could look at: CRCA precipitation low water response

Hi All,
Recently the WSC has changed one of our stations to a new Sutron-HSPAlink-1-IM logger which uses an IP address to transmit data and I have been unable to establish a connection with the logger through SODA yet. They have enabled IP address verification which I have provided to them, but still no success establishing a connection. Does anyone have experience connecting with this logger in SODA? 
Thanks

I am not sure which system the "8080" KiWIS URL is relating to, so Steve may be your best bet to get this sorted.

Our KiWIS server seems to be running but it's not working.  As the title says it's perpetually showing the "Loading ..." GIF  (url: http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:8080/KiWIS/ ).

It was running for a week or so, I was able to start writing some preliminary code to access it (very nice API, btw!) and then it just stopped, and reboots don't help.

The jProc Console doesn't show any problems anywhere.

Anyone else know how to solve this?

I'm trying to process some XML text but the VB compiler rejects the XML references (i.e. Dim oXMLDoc As Xml.XmlDocument).  I tried adding Imports System.XML but that didn't work and since "Imports System" is already there the first references should work.  I have checked the code in Visual Studio (creating my own FakeKidat class to intercept that code) and it works.

What are the KiDAT Visual Studio dependencies and/or what .Net Framework is it compiled against?  And/Or how do I get XML to work?

Hi Iryna,

I think quite a few people are doing this. If you need a refresher after our meeting with Massimo last week, I'd be happy to sit down and review all this stuff with you again.

Just to recap the major principles:

Required inputs:
- long term normals
- monthly input time series

Calculation: (monthly input / long term normals) * 100

You can do this in a few different ways. One way is the General correction agent, set to "Divide". You'll want to add your input time series, then your long term normals (i.e. order is important).

After that, go to the Transformation and either use the Eval() or Factor() statements. I prefer Eval() because its clearer "Eval(value*100)" versus the Factor(100) approach. It reminds me in a few months that I'm actually multiplying.

As an aside, I asked the Developers if they could change Factor() to Multiply() but they weren't biting .

Cheers,

Steve

I am opening this topic back up because I have also gotten stuck at the same point that Chris seems to have gotten, using very similar settings (which according to the help files should work), but doing the calculations outside of WISKI has gotten vastly different numbers. The manually calculated values I computed are very similar to the posted normals, making me think that the ones run through WISKI are not correct.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, but if no one has the answer, I will bring the question to Kisters support directly and inform everyone of the answer.

Thanks!

Good day everybody!
Are you using WISKI for the monthly OLWR calculations? If yes, could you please help me to set it up?

Greatly appreciated!

Hi everyone,

I was wondering how you've got your KiDAT tasks set up to handle the WSC format of approvals, codes, and remarks. Are you combining those into one field, separating them, or ignoring them all together?

Cheers,

Steve with KISTERS
