The CEDA Web Processing Service (WPS) provides a set of useful functions (processes) under a simple Web Service.

The WPS User Interface (UI) is a web front-end that allows the user to run processes ranging from a simple "instant" plot request to an offline model simulation (run on an offline server node).

The Documentation pages describe the structure of the service and the technologies that have been used to build it.

The View page provides details of the available processes, including the required inputs and outputs produced in each case.

To run a process, click on the Submit option above and select the process you wish to run by clicking on the Configure Job link. This will present you with the configuration page for the process you wish to submit a job to. Complete the page and click the Submit button. For instant processes the job will run immediately and your outputs will be accessible from the Jobs page. Larger processes will be run asynchronously and you will be informed how long the job will take to run before being asked to confirm you wish to submit.

Please note that some processes are restricted to registered users only.

Click on the Jobs page to view any previous jobs and/or the status of any current jobs.

On the Jobs page you can view any jobs that are currently running. Click on the Cancel job link beside a job to instruct the WPS to terminate that job. The job will disappear from y our jobs list once cancelled.
