To manipulate data status lists, from the CWMS CAVI main window, click the Acquisition tab, from the Reports menu, click Data Status Summary, the Data Status Summary dialog (Figure 1) will open. If a data status list has been displayed before, the Data Status Summary dialog displays the previously viewed data status list. If a data status list has not been displayed before, no datasets will be displayed in the Data Status Summary dialog.
From the Data Status Summary dialog (Figure 1), you can create data status lists, select a predefined data status list, copy a data status list, review the quality color bars, review how many values are missing, and, locate the time and date of the last valid data value for a particular time series dataset.
The Data Status Summary dialog (Figure 1) displays quality color bars and additional summary information for a group of time series gages listed in data status lists that you create. The data status lists allow you to organize lists of gages specific to your needs. For example, you might create data status lists that show all of your precipitation gages or all of your stream gages or a mix of precipitation and stream gages needed to generate a specific forecast. A data status list can contain datasets from CWMS and HEC-DSS databases.
Following is an overview of the Menu Bar for the Data Status Summary dialog (Figure 1). The commands available are:
| File | From this menu you can create a data status list, open a data status list, save a data status list, or copy one data status list to another. Available commands are: New, Open, Save, Save As, and Close. |
| Edit | From this menu you can edit the table of information that represents a data status list. You can insert and delete rows, and get data from the CWMS database. Available commands are: Insert Row(s), Delete Row(s), Browse CWMS Database, and Browse DSS. |
| View | From this menu you can plot and tabulate specific datasets, view the missing data segments of a dataset, validate data associated with a dataset, view the quality color bar legend, and refresh the data when the time window for the Data Status Summary dialog has changed. Available commands are: Plot, Tabulate, Missing Segments, Validate, Quality Color Legend, Time Window, and Refresh. |
From the table in the Data Status Summary dialog (Figure 1), select a time series dataset (a row in the table), then right-click on the selected time series dataset, a shortcut menu will be displayed (Figure 2). From the shortcut menu you can plot, tabulate, view missing data, or validate data for the selected time series dataset.
