I want a Graphical Interface (Web GUI) to input/choose options for the assessment run

• Selection of input/output files
• Defining relevant support files (e.g. files with thresholds to be applied in relation to quality criteria or risk levels); species lists, components to be include or not in output, graphical output file format, etc.
• Criteria specifications for power parameters, year spans, etc. to be applied
• Sub-setting runs (e.g. for OSPAR vs HELCOM vs AMAP purposes as this can affect modules that are applied or skipped); this could also determine what settings are applied as default or are available to be set.
• Setting options to append or replace to output files

Example of a GUI / form. Note this is from a text editor, so ignore the actual settings. For the HAT project we would have options such as, which determinands to use, or which matrix, or the method to apply to group determinands.... and so on.

The job of the GUI / form is to produce config file(s) only. the assessment would then be run in R as usual.

equivalent control file, in json format. But again, this is an exmaple from a text editor, please ingore the field names and values. For the HAT project, the options would reflect the different configuration options for the assessments.

The main point is the difference between the use of a form (above) and the equivalent configuration file (below):
