a grid as an image, then change the Color Table that is being used.</font></font>
|

<p><font color="#330000">To display a grid as an image, move the cursor

down to the legend that corresponds to that grid. Press and hold

MB3 and select Display as Image. This will change the grid to an

image. For more information on this and other legend options, see

|
the section <a href="GFETrainingSpatialEditor.html#LegendPop-upMenu">Legend
|
|
Pop-up Menu</a>. Changing the current color table is done via the

color bar located at the top of the Spatial Editor. Move the cursor

to the color bar and press and hold MB3 to display the pop-up menu.
|

Move the cursor to the item </font><font color="#FF0000">Change Color Table

like.</font>

<p><a NAME="AssignWeatherByPoP"></a><font color="#3333FF"><font size=+2>Assign
|
|
a weather type to the portion of a grid covered by a certain PoP value.</font></font>
|
|
<p>First you need to define an edit area based on PoP. To do this
|
|
open the <a href="ButtonBarDialogs.html#EditAreaQueryDialog">Edit Area
|
|
Query Dialog</a> from the Button Bar. This button looks like this <img SRC="images/defineRefset0.gif" height=46 width=46>.
|
|
Define a query based on PoP. For example, "<font color="#FF0000">PoP->
|
|
30</font>" and submit the query. For more information, see the
|
|
section on the <a href="ButtonBarDialogs.html#EditAreaQueryDialog">Edit
|
|
Area Query Dialog</a>. Once you have defined your edit area based
|
|
on PoP, then make the corresponding Wx grid active. Select the appropriate
|
|
weather type, coverage and intensity and assign that value to the edit
|
|
area.
|
|
<p><a NAME="AssignPopBasedOnQPF"></a><font color="#3333FF"><font size=+2>Assign
|
|
values to a PoP grid based on different threshold values in the QPF grid
|
|
for that time.</font></font>
|
|
<p><font color="#330000">This task can be accomplished by submitting several
|
|
queries that identify areas based on the QPF value and then assigning various
|
|
PoP values after each query. For example, open the </font> <a href="ButtonBarDialogs.html#EditAreaQueryDialog">Edit
|
|
Area Query Dialog</a> and define a query at the low end of QPF such
|
|
as "QPF < 0.01". Once this edit area has been defined, assign
|
|
a PoP value of 0%. Next submit another query such as "QPF >= 0.01
|
|
* QPF < 0.10". Once this edit area is defined, assign a different value
|
|
for PoP such as 20%. Follow this with another query, and so on until
|
|
the entire range of QPF has been addressed.
|
|
<p>Smart Tools is another way to define this relationship with significantly
|
|
less work. See the <a href="SmartTools.html">Smart Tools Training
|
|
Guide</a> for more information on creating Smart Tools.
