1. Data provider

Danish Meteorological Institute - Open Data

https://www.dmi.dk/

2. Thematic scope

Point measurements from tide gauge stations in Denmark owned by the Danish Meteorological Institute and the Danish Coastal Authority.

The API serves the following features: • Tide gauge stations • Sea level observations • Water temperature observations

The data belong to the INSPIRE theme “Oceanographic geographical features”: https://inspire.ec.europa.eu/Themes/143/2892

3. Envisaged use

The API is in production

4. Requirements classes

OGC conformance classes:

• http://www.opengis.net/spec/ogcapi-features-1/1.0/conf/core
• http://www.opengis.net/spec/ogcapi-features-1/1.0/conf/oas30
• http://www.opengis.net/spec/ogcapi-features-1/1.0/conf/geojson

Requirements classes implemented from the Good Practice:

• http://inspire.ec.europa.eu/id/spec/oapif-download/1.0/req/pre-defined

5. Server-side technology

The code is self-developed and written in Java as a Spring Boot application using standard products (i.e. Tomcat Webserver and REST implementation).

The data provided through the API is stored in a MapR database. MapR is a big data platform that integrates Hadoop and Spark. The platform includes global event streaming, real-time database capabilities, and enterprise storage.

6. Endpoints and client applications
