Hampton Roads, VA Sensor Assets

...and Public Web API URLs for near-real time water level data

This page serves to host a non-comprehensive map and list of live streaming web Application Programming Interface (API) Uniform Resource Locator (URL) links for publicly-broadcasting sensor assets relevant to flooding in Hampton Roads, VA. Data are aggregated from federal entities such as NOAA and USGS, regional research groups, like VIMS and CBNEER, and local governments employing emergent IoT-driven remote monitoring solutions through Smart City projects like StormSense. This list will be occasionally updated as the region's asset list expands.

Below is a non-comprehensive list and map featured data available for current publicly-accessible water level monitoring stations in Hampton Roads, VA. If those stations also have other data types concurrently available related to flooding (such as wind speed, air pressure, precipitation, etc.), those public APIs are also noted here as well. The interactive map below depicts the stations' locations using the Latitude and Longitudes from the table further below. To access all public APIs for that station, click on one of the anchor links listed below to navigate to the sensors of interest for more details:

The USGS employs public streaming API URLs for their established sensors as well, below are aggregation links for water levels in Virginia Beach, Hampton, and Chesapeake, although other stations can be retrieved this way too if their station names and desired parameter names are known and queried within the URLs below. The parameters recorded by the USGS are noted in the following URLs as: (&parameterCd=00020,00025,00035,00036,00045,00052,00060,00065,61728,62620)

C. StormSense Public Web API URLs

The StormSense Project is an inundation forecasting research initiative partially funded by the National Institute of Standards and Technology to advance the field of emergency preparedness for flooding resulting from storm surge, rain, and tides. The scope of the project encompasses the interests of Hampton Roads local governments wishing to enhance their emergency preparedness via a network of 'Internet of Things' (IoT)-enabled water level sensors, collaborating with the hydrodynamic flood modeling and forecasting capabilities of the Virginia Institute of Marine Science (VIMS) and their VIMS TideWatch Network. Each of the sites listed below are available in a variety of web streaming data formats and possess a unique TideWatch URL, where tidal water level forecast will eventually be presented alongside the ingested water levels from the raw data URLs from each station. In winter 2018, once a sufficient data record is retrieved for these stations, tidal harmonic estimations will be extracted from these sites from the predictor-corrector equation and these sites will begin to report tidal forecasts. Currently each site in the links show observations in blue, and a red line depicting the Monthly Mean (m30) signal. The individual links below will be embedded in separate sensor pages on: http://www.vims.edu/bayinfo/tidewatch/index.php.
