Tide Preview

Tide Preview allows to generate a tide timeserie from the harmonic consituents of a given tidal gauge. The harmonic components are given by the Fes95 or the Fes2004 solution, and tidal gauges can be extracted for points near the boundary.

Configuration of the TidePrevInput.dat file:

  START                       : YYYY MM DD HH MM SS -         !Start time to compute water level
  END                         : YYYY MM DD HH MM SS -         !End time to compute water level
  DT                          : real              -           !Time step to compute water level
  EXPORT_TO_XYZ               : 0/1               0           !Create a XYZ file with gauge locations
  XYZ_FILE                    : char              -           !Name of XYZ file to be created

  IN_TIDES                    : char              -           !Path to gauge file
