Irish Tide Gauge Network: Latest Water Level at Every Station

marineieerddap/tide-gauge-latest

The newest water-level reading at each station of the Irish National Tide Gauge Network (Marine Institute, Ireland), about 23 ports and harbours. One row per station that reported inside the window: station name, numeric station id (datasourceid, the value the series tool takes), UTC time, latitude, longitude, water level in metres above lowest astronomical tide (Water_Level_LAT), water level in metres relative to Malin Head Ordnance Datum (Water_Level_OD_Malin) and a quality flag (0 is the best). `withinHours` (1 to 72) is how far back to look: a station silent for longer is left out, and a window with no readings at all is refused as invalid. Real-time, unvalidated feed: readings can be revised. Only the CC BY 4.0 tide gauge dataset is served.
