Intro

A list of endpoints offering GW information and\or observations based on existing systems in order for WMO CHy to begin GWML2 and related standards testing phase. Data come from different parts of the world.

Then these endpoints will be harvested by WMO's Hydrological Observing System (WHOS) which will test its content with selected GISC in the world.

Some examples of data consumption by desktop and web client are also provided

National Groundwater Montioring Network

Overall comment: this service was set up for evaluation and links below are not part of the enterprise system. There are plans to further build out and deploy a more robust version of this service in the future.

GWML2 service
Groundwater level service; this service returns time series data from wells from cached data.
