Summary

This dataset covers monitoring data that is updated on our systems on a minimum of a daily update cycle. This is increased during times of flooding etc. Measurements of the height (m) of water in a river, lake or coastal site taken using automatic field devices, are given usually every 15 minutes. Information is available for NRW river monitoring sites throughout Wales, as well as some reservoirs and coastal sites.
