Report

Using this section, you can easily and rapidly create nice looking reports. Just start out by selecting the instruments you want to report on. Note you are not limited to a single project.

Anatomy

From top to bottom, a report consists of:

• A title, which is editable.

• The from (inclusive) and to (exclusive) dates. When left blank, the last-used period will be plotted.

• The names and clickable contact addresses of the project administrators.

• A map showing the location of all selected instruments. The markers will contain the instrument type letter or symbol.

• A legend clarifying the instrument types present.

• A free-text information field.

Next up are all selected instruments:

• The type and name of the instrument.

• Relevant metadata:

  • The project code and name.

  • The contact address of the project administrator.

  • The coordinate system and the coordinates.

  • The elevation of the instrument.

  • The elevation of the surface.

  • The period in which this instrument has been measuring.

• The plot showing the desired period, which has been made exempt from refreshing.

• A table containing all manual measurements, if any.

Saving a periodic report

In order to create a periodic report, you must save it to the database first. That is the function of the save button. After successfully having stored the current report, you will be redirected to the projects section. There you can finish defining your periodic report.

The following report metadata will be saved to the database:

• The report title.

• The map boundaries.

• The map layer.

• The free-text information field.

• The selection of instruments.

Limited by RAM memory

While generating large reports, a browser may become sluggish for a longer time. After a while, some browsers will offer the choice to close the app or to keep waiting on it. This is a indication that the RAM memory has been depleted and the report is better split into smaller parts.
