TSTool / Datastore Reference / Overview
Introduction
This reference section of the documentation provides information about the TSTool datastore that can be used to access KiWIS data.
See the TSTool full documentation for more information about all datastores that are supported, including USGS and other data sources that are useful with KiWIS systems.
KiWIS Datastores
The following datastores provide access to KiWIS data.
| Datastore (link to documentation) | Technology | Spatial Extent | Contents |
|---|---|---|---|
| KiWIS Web Services | Web service (REST). | KiWIS system extent. | Real-time and historical time series data. |
Datastore Configuration
Datastores are configured using datastore configuration files, which are described in the specific appendix.
Built-in (installation) datastore configuration files are located in the software installation datastores folder.
User datastore configuration files are located in the user's .tstool/NN/datastores folder (where NN is the TSTool major version).
Note that the Name property in the datastore configuration file defines the datastore name, not the file name.
Use the View / Datastores menu in TSTool to view datastores that are enabled, in particular to review configuration errors and to see which configuration file was used for a datastore.
Use the Tools / Options menu in TSTool to change TSTool configuration properties. If necessary, edit configuration files with a text editor.
