SE.ACMF Hydrological observations — Water flow, daily value

Purpose: Describe Sweden’s hydrology. Used for forecasting and warnings, climate studies and scenarios for infrastructure, nutrient transport and flood mapping, etc. Unit: m³/s Characteristics: Describes the amount of water per unit of time that flows into a watercourse. Data for the last hour and day is delivered as 4 quarter values/hour. Historical data is delivered as daily values where the day is in Swedish summertime, which means that the Swedish day starts at 22 UTC the day before. The timestamp indicates the start time of the time step in UTC. Design: Time, value, quality. Quality codes: Green (G) = Verified and accepted values. Yellow (Y) = Coarsely controlled values, suspicious or aggregated values. Orange (O) = Uncontrolled values Limits: >=0 Delivery: Data is delivered in two different ways 1. Via a user interface where measurement series can be downloaded for one station at a time. All available daily values are delivered here. 2. Via a machine-machine solution (Atom flow rate). There, both historical data and real-time data (last hour measurements) can be obtained. They can be retrieved for a measuring station at a time. Real-time data can also be retrieved for all active measuring stations.
