Original docs & schemas
This guide is a friendlier front-end to the official material — not a replacement. When you need exhaustive, authoritative detail, go to the source.
Primary sources
Section titled “Primary sources”-
Configuring Delft-FEWS — Configuration Guide The official reference manual on the Deltares public wiki. Complete and authoritative; organized by config file and module. This is the canonical word on every option.
-
XML schemas (
version1.0) The machine-readable grammar (.xsd) for every FEWS config file. If you want to know exactly which elements and attributes are valid, this is the source of truth. Our reference pages will summarize these with added context.

A note on versions
Section titled “A note on versions”FEWS evolves, and so do its schemas and docs. This guide targets the concepts and
version1.0 schema family, which are stable across most current deployments.
Where a detail is version-sensitive, we’ll say so. When in doubt, the
official guide tracks the latest release.
