Time Series

Time series of a chart panel can be configured clicking the Time Series button og the Chart Panel.

Add new time series clicking the New button.

Each time series is configured clicking the Details button of the time series.

  • Active
    The Active checkbox is used to enable or disable the time series.
    Disabling a time series will hide the time series in Charts and Tables.
  • Id and Name
    Give the time series an id and a name.
    Id is used as reference in spreadsheets. The name is used as display name in MIKE OPERATIONS.
  • Description
    Description is optional and can contain more lines of text.
    Description is only for additional information about the time series and will not be display elsewhere.
  • Themes
    Specify the theme where the time series is visible.
    If no theme is selected, the time series is displayed on all themes.
  • Time Series Path
    Full path to the time series in the time series manager.
    The path supports placeholders. This means that selected themes and observation periods can be part of the path to the time series.
    Use e.g. [ObservationPeriod.Name] to insert the name in the path before fetching the time series.
    Refer the section about placeholders for information about available placeholders.
  • Time Series Definition
    Instead of a time series path, a time series definition and an id to a feature can be specified.
    Time series definition defines the feature type and the time series definition to show.
  • Feature Id
    Feature id defines the location to get the time series from, when a time series definition has been specified.
    Get the feature id from the location in the navigation panel.

Ensemble

Click the Ensemble group to configure how to display ensemble time series for the time series type.

Ensemble time series are defined as time series with more than one member.

  • Ensemble Extraction Mode
    Time series will be extracted according to the Ensemble Extraction Mode.

    The following modes are supported:
    • Extract all
      Extracts all time series in the ensemble.
    • Extract selection
      Extracts the time series specified in the Member selection field.
    • Maximum
      Displays the maximum value of each time step for all time series in the ensemble.
    • Mean
      Extracts the mean value for each time step, of all time series in the ensemble.
    • Minimum
      Displays the minimum value of each time step for all time series in the ensemble.
    • Quantile
      Displays the quantile values for each time step of all time series in the ensemble.
    • Standard deviation
      Extracts the standard deviation for each time step.
    • Exceedance
      Extracts the ratio of ensemble members exceeding the specified value for each time step.
    • Non exceedance
      Extracts the ratio of ensemble members not exceeding the specified value for each time step.
  • Member selection
    Comma separated list of members to include in the selection (e.g. 1,2,6).

    Member selection is only used in mode Extract selection.
  • Probability
    Sets the probability for the quantile statistics option. Probability is a comma separated string with the quantile percent values (e.g. 10,25,90). Percent values must use decimal points.
    Probability is used for EnsembleExtractionMode = Quantile only.

  • Exceedance Constant
    Sets the Exceedance Constant value option.
    Exceedance Constant is used for Extraction Mode = Exceedance and Non exceedance.

Chart Styles

As time series can contain more series (e.g. an ensemble), the style of each time series can be configured clicking the Chart styles button.

The chart styles are applied to time series in the same order as appearing in the list of chart styles.


Click New to create a new chart style, and Details to configure the chart style.

  • Chart Type
    The type of the chart in the Chart View.

  • Color
    Color is the color of the line or bars (for step accumulated time series) of the time series.

  • Line Style
    Line Style is the line style of the time series in the Chart View.

  • Marker Style
    The style of the point marker in the Chart View.
    The size of the marker will be set to the size of the line multiplied by 5.

  • Size
    Size is the line thickness of lines or marker in the Chart View.

  • Marker Color Style
    Configure the marker color style.

    • Line Color
      The marker will have the same color as the line.
    • Threshold Color
      The marker will have the color as the threshold at the time where the marker is placed on the chart.
    • Custom Color
      The marker will have a fixed color defined in the Custom Marker Color property.
  • Custom Marker Color
    Color of the marker when Custom Marker Color is selected in Marker Color Style.

  • Chart Area Index
    The chart area index, defines in what chart area the time series should be displayed.
    The index will not define the order of the chart areas, as the order is defined by the order of the time series in the list of time series.

  • Show Vertical Lines
    Shows vertical lines in the chart for every x-value.
    The marker color defines the color of the vertical line.
    Vertical lines are applied when there is only one time series in the chart area.
  • Use X-Axis Point Labels
    X-axis labels and a fixed x-axis grid are shown for every x-value of the time series.
    Additional label lines are added if comments have been specified on the time steps. To have more label lines, the comment of the time step should be separated by a semicolon.
    Note that vertical lines are applied when there is only one time series in the chart area.
