NDBC — National Data Buoy Center

NDBC THREDDS/OPeNDAP NetCDF Service

Exposes NDBC station time-series data as NetCDF files through a THREDDS Data Server (TDS) at https://dods.ndbc.noaa.gov/ using the OPeNDAP protocol. Dataset categories include standard meteorology (stdmet), continuous winds (cwind), spectral wave density (swden), acoustic Doppler current profiler (adcp, adcp2), oceanographic (ocean), water level (wlevel), DART tsunami (dart), and peak/mean currents (pwind, mmbcur). Files follow the naming pattern SSSSStYYYY.nc; real-time files use year 9999. An OceanSITES-format TAO buoy collection and HF Radar surface currents are also available via the same server.
