 The service includes a rudimentary viewing facility, which is implemented as an embedded WMS client. It is intended to serve as a backup viewing service for met.no's national clients, who normally use their own dedicated GIS to view data files delivered automatically.  The service includes a rudimentary viewing facility, which is implemented as an embedded WMS client.

-[[kilden_oilship_wms|Viewing in embedded WMS client]]+This facility makes it possible to predict the fate of oil spilled from a drifting ship, as in the "Prestige" accident. In summary, it is done by first performing a ship drift simulation, and then using the position and time information from the drift trajectory as a moving source for an oil spill simulation. 
 + 
 +Take a look at the [[kilden_shipoil_order|order form for oil drift simulation with input from a ship drift trajectory]].  
 + 
 + 
 +  - Perform a ship drift simulation as described above. //Note the serial number of the simulation//. 
 +  - Select **Start oildrift simulation** from the main menu. 
 +  - Hit the **Get ship trajectory** button. Pops up a //Get shipdirft simulation// window. 
 +  - Select the ship drift simulation. Edit the oil spill depth and rate, as appropriate. Hit **OK** 
 +  - Edit list of positions / times / depths / rates if needed. 
 +  - Fill in other information as necessary: 
 +      * **Oil type**: Select from the list 
 +      * **Simulation duration**: The simulation will stop after this period or when the forcing data runs out. 
 +      * **email**: n/a for Mersea user. 
 +      * **Description**: Please enter a unique description that is recognizable in the listing. 
 +  - Hit Advanced options button 
 +      * Select the **Ocean model** 
 +         * met.no is for Norwegian waters 
 +         * default = mercat_o4_glo 
 +         * mfs_16_med = MFS 1/16th degree model of Mediterranean Sea 
 +         * mercat_15_med = Mercator 1/15th degree model of Mediterranean Sea 
 +         * mercat_15_nat = Mercator 1/15th degree model of North Atlantic 
 +         * mercat_04_glo = Mercator 1/4th degree Global model 
 +      * Leave all other parameters at their default values 
 +  - Hit **Start** button 
 + 
 +When the simulation starts, a status monitoring page appears. //Be sure to make a note of the serial number of the simulation for future reference//. This page allows you to view input and log files while waiting for the simulation to complete. An oil drift simulation usually takes 2-10 minutes, depending on what forcing data is being accessed. A small information box will appear when the simulation is complete. Data files in ascii and binary formats may then be downloaded from this page. Also, the results are now ready for viewing in the embedded viewing tool.  
 + 
 +The status page will also show any errors that caused the simulation to fail.  
 + 
 +==== To view a ship+oil drift forecast ==== 
 + 
 +Same as for viewing any oil drift simulation. Just select the relevant simulation. 
 + 
 +Look [[kilden_oilship_wms|here]] for details on what you see.
