Things You Can Do With Your Graphs

Well, you can do anything you want with your graphs, of course. But some things you might not have considered are:

• Web page authors can embed a graph of the latest data in a web page using HTML <img> tags.
• Anyone can use ERDDAPs Slide Sorter to build a personal web page that displays graphs with the latest data (or other images or HTML content), each in its own, draggable slide.

"Relative Wind Direction 600 s binned time series data.
Vessel: RV Sikuliaq. Sensor Model: R.M. Young 85000 ultrasonic anemometer
Sensor S/N: unknown
Sensor Location Onboard: Port Side
Sensor Description: Bridge port anemometer. Model 85004 (heated). Component of the Ship's navigation instrumentation. Note: This sensor is not part of the pool of science maintained instrumentation.
Parameter Description: Calculated meteorological relative wind is defined as the wind vector measured relative to the ship. The relative wind direction is the direction relative to the bow of the ship from which the wind is blowing with the relative wind speed. Direction conventions are 0 deg for wind from the bow, 90 deg for wind from the starboard side, 180 deg for wind from the stern, and 270 deg for wind from the port side.";

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 Data Access Protocol (DAP) and its selection constraints.

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.

• (easy) You can get data by using the dataset's Data Access Form or Subset form. They make the URL for you.
• (easy) You can make a graph or map by using the dataset's Make A Graph form. It makes the URL for you.
• (not hard) You can bypass the forms and get the data or make a graph or map by generating the URL by hand or with a computer program or script.

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.
