Appendix A. Relational Database Tables (names may be case sensitive for non-Windows installations)


Table Name Table Contents
Alarmactions Up to 31 alarm actions can be specified. This table contains the executable program for each action. For example, warning_email.exe, warning_control.exe, etc..
Alarms Information on active and historical alarms. The type of alarm (e.g., water level above flood stage), the date / time of the alarm, etc.
Alarmsettings The actual alarm settings for each sensor (e.g., max value, min value).
Availableactions All executables that can be invoked when an alarm occurs.
Categories The categories of sensor types that can be displayed on a map (e.g., Rainfall, Water Level, Road Surface Conditions)
Cat_members Contains the sensor types in each map category.
Currentdata For each defined sensor, a timestamp of the most recent data, the most recent data in engineering units and, if data is received in raw form (e.g., Legacy ALERT and others), the corresponding raw data value.
DataBankCalib Timeseries data (time stamp, data value) for all defined sensors in engineering units
DataBankRaw Timeseries data for all defined sensors in raw form if the data for a sensor is acquired in raw form.
EmailInfo Email / cell phone numbers to deliver alarms to.
GoesID Meta-data about GOES DCP's to receive and decode.
ReportGroups Sensor groupings for statistical analysis displays.
Sensors Meta-data for each sensor being stored in the database.
