Creation of a PKW Database - Discussion

Piano Key Weir description involves a lot of geometrical parameters which designations are now well defined. A naming convention has been developed to enhance exchanges and cooperation between the numerous developers. This nomenclature was presented and discussed during the workshop and the updated version is included in the present proceedings (Pralong et al., pp. 277-284). In order to make easier the access to experimental or field data from different sources, a Database is required. This document relates the proposal which was presented and discussed during the workshop. The carrying out of this Database is expected in a near future.
