Kisters WISKI is a relational database designed to acquire, store, and validate data for water management. WISKI is comprised of an SQL database and a web application (KiWIS). CWMS provides access to the WISKI database by using the web application KiWIS. WISKI data can be used to provide input data to a CWMS forecast. CWMS can also disseminate data from a forecast.dss file to a WISKI database through KiWIS. Together, the system can be used to edit and transform data.
This appendix provides instructions on how to use the WISKI database with CWMS and includes: retrieving data from a WISKI database to provide input for a forecast compute using the Extract Editor, and disseminating forecast data to the WISKI database using the Post Editor.
