Climsoft Version 4.2.3, Climate Data Management System is available in English, French and Portuguese, giving flexibility to Users to switch to their language of preference.
Following are new and improved features in Climsoft Version 4.2.3:
-
Improvement of the Data Entry forms to allow searching of records by Station names in addition to search by Stations’ Ids when the View command button is selected.
-
Climsoft supervisor user can now view data entered by Climsoft operator users in both form view and sheet view.
-
Improvement of the external data import module;
- An added option to manually transfer Automatic Weather Station (AWS) data from files to observationfinal table without first going through observationinitial table. Data with QC errors is automatically saved in a file in the QC folder. Element limits configured in metadata are used in the QC checks.
- Where data being imported is in different time settings from that in the database e.g. UTC vs Local time a box has been provided to enter the number of hours required for the adjustment in order to have uniform observation time in the database.
-
Improvement of the AWS Real Time Processing Sites Setting dialog to allow sites be individually configured to:
- Allow adjustment where observations time settings (UTC vs Local time) are different from that in Climsoft database.
- Provide UTC hour difference for GTS messages (BUFR) encoding.
-
Daily precipitation totals from AWS and hourly data can now be computed for the period 06-06UTC in addition to the period 00-23H whichever suits the user. The 06-06UTC totals product is available under the Special Products.
-
Improvement on stations metadata import dialog; existing stations metadata can now be updated with new information from a list of stations in a text file. If there are new stations in the file they will be added in the database while the existing ones will be updated with the new details.
