Pacific Ocean Observing Dataset Record by Dataset ID (CIOOS Pacific ERDDAP)

cioospacificerddap/get-dataset-info

The full attribute record of one CIOOS Pacific ERDDAP dataset by its Dataset ID: title, summary, institution, licence, creator, spatial and time coverage, and each variable with its units, as rows of Row Type, Variable Name, Attribute Name, Data Type and Value. Licences are set per dataset, so read the license row here before reusing a dataset's data. Typical size is 10 to 30 KB. An unknown Dataset ID is refused as a validation error. Find ids with cioospacificerddap/list-datasets or cioospacificerddap/search-datasets. CIOOS Pacific data served by Eden Engine; not an official CIOOS product.
