This project has received funding from the European Union’s Seventh Programme for Research, Technological Development and Demostration under Grant Agreement No. 603458.

One objective of WP3 is to develop an impact-oriented Early Warning System (EWS) for hot spot areas consisting of a free-ware Coastal FEWS system (D3.1) based on Delft-FEWS as a platform to construct a model train to predict detailed spatially-varying hazard intensities.
This deliverable will be used in WP5 in two ways: as an operational EWS tool which provides input for emergency decisions, and as an ex-ante scenario evaluation tool to evaluate the optimal mix of prevention, mitigation and preparedness measures.
Deliverable D3.1

What is Delft-FEWS?
Data Hydraulic Models Forecasts & warnings
Delft-FEWS is a configurable shell in which
• data im- and exports,• modelling and • pre- and post-processing of data
are managed (“data centric workflow manager”)
Many inland (fluvial) and coastal applications worldwide.
Observations and Meteo input
Wave, flow and morphological models
Visualization, output to DSS

Components of a FEWS system
• Core program• Generic functionality:
• Visualisation• General data import module
• Identical for all FEWS systems• Freeware, but closed-source
(license agreement)• Maintained by Deltares, formal
release scheduleFEWS Configuration (XML)
Customize generic functionality for each study site (templates will be available)•Data feed routine (e.g. GFS for the area of Portugal)•Model adapter to couple models (e.g. a SELFE model of Ria Formosa)•Define visualisation displays (e.g. wind field, water levels, wave heights)•Maintained by system user
FEWS Binaries (JAVA)

Modular toolboxDelft-FEWS provides a generic functionality(modules) which can easilybe configured andorganized for specificapplications (processingdata, running models, …).

Importing and editing dataFEWS provides in-build support for many commondata formats. From FEWS,data can also be qualitychecked, edited andmodified in various ways
Extension for RISC-KIT:Import routines for:•CS3xTidalSurgeTime•MetOfficeWW3

Processing dataFEWS provides a lot of in-build functionality to processdata: interpolation,extrapolation, user defined,statistics, and much more

Model adapter is specific for a modelling software
Model runs outside FEWS and can be any software you want
