BoM National Flood Gauge Network

Access APIThese spatial datasets represent the Bureau of Meteorology's National rainfall gauge and river level gauge flood network, which is utilised for delivering the flood warning service.Flood gauges are classified by forecast, information, data and tide gauge locations. Also includes Bureau flood watch catchments and flood warning catchments.Flood watch and warning catchments include AAC attribution, which refers to the Australian Meteorological and Oceanographic Code (AMOC) Area Code. These codes can be used to link areas and sites to the Bureau’s XML forecast products such as flood warnings and flood watches.In flood warning catchments the AAC_PARENT is the AAC of the parent catchment for sub-catchment areas. If the catchment has no sub-catchments, the AAC and AAC_PARENT will be identical. If the catchment has sub-catchments, AAC_PARENT is null.In the flood watch catchments layer, the AAC_PARENT is only used for grouping.Supporting datasets include Geofabric V3x , showing major rivers and all rivers, streams and creeks, as well as Local Government Areas.MetadataTypeMap Image LayerUpdate FrequencyUnknownContact Detailshttp://www.bom.gov.au/inside/contacts.shtml?ref=hdrRelationship to Themes and DatasetsAccuracyStandards and SpecificationsAggregatorsBureau of MeterologyDistributorsBureau of MeterologyDataset Producers and ContributorsBureau of Meterology
