Latest News: New Sea Data Service
As part of the revamp of the Fair Weather Kayaker site we have implemented the first stage of the Sea Data Service. The first incarnation is the inclusion of a table displaying a summary of the data captured from buoys managed by the Channel Coast Observatory.
In the next few weeks and months I shall add more locations to my service and include more information, for those undertaking in-shore and off-shore water activities, such as:
- Tidal timetables
- Latest water quality analysis
- “Hyper-local” weather conditions
- Weather forecasts
- Historical sea observations
- Location Based Sea Data trend charts.
The summarised data will always be free, but once we move from a ‘beta’ stage, the base and historical data will be available to be retrieved from our RESTful web service offering by subscription.
For further information contact us via the Contact Us page.
The Channel Coast Observatory is a website for the National Network of Regional Coastal Monitoring Programmes of England.
The Network comprises 6 Regional Programmes, collecting coastal monitoring data in a co-ordinated and systematic manner to serve the needs of coastal engineering and management.
