Time Series Manager
The Time series Manager (TSM) is a tool for manipulating, infilling, cleaning and transforming time series. It can be used to investigate time series, and apply any rating curve to create new time-series data sets. Ensure that the following plugin is present prior to opening a project in Source:

The TSM module interacts with the other three components of RAP, and can:
- Accept the rating curves developed in the Hydraulic Analysis (HA) module and apply them to time series; and
- Input time series to the Time series Analysis (TSA) module.
It is intended as an interpretive tool and is ideal for workshop or seminar-like situations, as well as standard desktop analysis. TSA handles most common time series formats such as *.CSV, *.CDT, *.IQQM and *.SILO8. Time series must be free of gaps and null entries (ie -9999).
The rating curves can be saved as .xml, which can be opened and viewed in MS Excel. Time series of hydraulic metrics can be saved as .CSV or .CDT (comma delimited time series). Bit-maps of plots can also be copied and pasted into graphics programs.
