Argo Float Directory Listing by DAC and WMO Number (Argo GDAC)

ifremerargogdac/float-files

Lists the files and folders the Argo Global Data Assembly Center holds for one float, given its data assembly centre and 7-digit WMO number (for example coriolis and 1900063): the meta, profile (prof), trajectory (Rtraj) and technical (tech) NetCDF files and the profiles folder, each with its last-modified time and size. Returns directory metadata only, never the NetCDF measurement files. An unknown float returns an error. Argo float index information passed through and served by Eden Engine; not an official Ifremer or Argo product.
