This document described how you can restrict the spatial extent of your InfoEx report by specifying what locations to include.

Background

The application offers four possibilities for restricting the locations included in an InfoEx report:

  1. Selecting the operations to be included
  2. Specifying the mountain ranges to be included
  3. Specifying the CAC forecast regions
  4. Drawing a custom polygon
NOTE Please note that the four ways of specifying the locations are mutually exclusive and cannot be combined. In other words you cannot create a report that includes a number of operations and a mountain range. You can only create reports that either contain the observations of a number of operations or within an mountain range.

Step-by-step description

1.
Fig. 1: Overview of tabular report view
Click into the text box under the 'Location' label of the report view (Fig. 1).
2.

This will open a popup window called 'Location Filter' with four tabs across the top (Fig. 2).
3. Use one of the following methods for specifying the locations you would like to be included in your report.

  • Click into the empty text box and start typing the name of the operation you would like to be included in your report. The dropdown list will automatically list the operations what match with what you type.
  • Include as many operations in your report as you like (Fig. 3).
  • Click on Ok to submit your selection.
Fig. 4: Location filter popup window with mountain range selection
By mountain range:
  • Click on the Mountain Range at the top of the popup window.
  • Click into the empty text box and start typing the name of the mountain range you would like to be included in your report. The dropdown list will automatically list the mountain ranges what match with what you type.
  • Include as many mountain ranges in your report as you like (Fig. 4).
