IFC's web service system for providing real time date of the so called Virtual Gages
It is composed by a set of bash/python/php scripts and php/json pages distributed between a backend and a frontend system components as briefly described bellow. For more details regarding each of those components, please find more documentation on their respective folders.
This component has the objective of:
- harvest the data produced by the observation gages, state and forecast models;
- post-process the harvested information to be used optimally by the frontend component;
- keep a historical dataset of harverest data.
This component is designed to provide a communication interface with other tools and users by:
- accessing the data produced by the backend component;
- providing visual and text-based web interfaces to such data;
- communicating via e-mail to certain people when events of interest are detected.
