Baltic Sea Real Time Observations Now Available

This week we’ve added Baltic Sea Real Time Observations to Planet OS Datahub.

The Baltic Sea recently experienced a significant sea level drop which can be easily viewed with this timeseries dataset. Due to three weeks long eastern winds and high air pressure, over 200 km3 of water was blown from the Baltic Sea into the ocean through the Scandinavian straits.

Baltic Sea observations data are collected from 150 stations and includes sea surface temperature, sea surface height and wave properties. The dataset provides observations within 24 to 48 hours of acquisition, with quality controlled according to standardized procedures that have been defined in collaboration with BOOS (Baltic Operational Oceanographic System).
