The buoy is located at the approaches to Port Aux Basques Harbour in about 50 m. water depth. The buoy's purpose is to monitor and transmit in near real time meteorological and oceanographic data in support of operational efficiency, safety and situational awareness for marine transportation. The buoy also provides a continuous data feed in support of the Science and R&D community.The buoy is capable of measuring a variety of atmospheric and surface conditions including: wind speed and direction, air temperature, humidity, dew point, barometric pressure, water temperature, current speed and direction (0.5 m. depth), wave height, direction and period as well as wave spectral information. The buoy is also equipped with an Aids to Navigation Information System (ATONiS) allowing direct transmittal of the buoy data to a ship's bridge.";

L'objectif de la bouée est de surveiller et de transmettre en temps quasi réel les données météorologiques et océanographiques à l'appui de l'efficacité opérationnelle, de la sécurité et de la connaissance de la situation pour le transport maritime. La bouée fournit également un flux continu de données à l'appui de la communauté des sciences et de la R-D. La bouée est capable de mesurer diverses conditions atmosphériques et de surface, y compris la vitesse et la direction du vent, la température de l'air, l'humidité, le point de rosée, la pression barométrique, la température de l'eau, la vitesse et la direction du courant (0,5 m de profondeur), la hauteur, la direction et la période des vagues ainsi que l'information spectrale des vagues.

Using tabledap to Request Data and Graphs from Tabular Datasets

tabledap lets you request a data subset, a graph, or a map from a tabular dataset (for example, buoy data), via a specially formed URL. tabledap uses the OPeNDAP (external link) Data Access Protocol (DAP) (external link) and its selection constraints (external link).

The URL specifies what you want: the dataset, a description of the graph or the subset of the data, and the file type for the response.

Tabledap request URLs must be in the form
https://coastwatch.pfeg.noaa.gov/erddap/tabledap/datasetID.fileType{?query}
For example,
https://coastwatch.pfeg.noaa.gov/erddap/tabledap/pmelTaoDySst.htmlTable?longitude,latitude,time,station,wmo_platform_code,T_25&time>=2015-05-23T12:00:00Z&time<=2015-05-31T12:00:00Z
Thus, the query is often a comma-separated list of desired variable names, followed by a collection of constraints (e.g., variable<value), each preceded by '&' (which is interpreted as "AND").

For details, see the tabledap Documentation.
