Query the water levels of all registered stations in Germany, analyze, and visualize the spatio-temporal features at a specific time for the last 90 days. The cloud-based backend detects patterns of water levels risings for specific time ranges. The detection algorithm is under active development.

These include daily updated raw data of various hydrological parameters, such as water levels, of inland and coastal levels along the federal waterways.

The Federal Waterways and Shipping Administration (WSV) provides this unverified raw data. Therefore, no liability or guarantee is assumed for the correctness, accuracy, timeliness, reliability or completeness of the data. The raw data is freely available under the DL-DE-Zero-2.0 license hosted by Pegelonline.
