article: Apr 28 2008 - Tsunami data on the website

Sea level data recorded by the New Zealand Tsunami Monitoring Network is now available on the website, and a plot showing the recordings of the last 36 hours can be viewed.

The New Zealand Tsunami Monitoring Network is being established around the coast and on offshore islands. It will ultimately consist of 20 stations, including two Australian gauges on Norfolk and Macquarie Islands. It is being built by GNS Science (through the GeoNet Project) in partnership with Land Information New Zealand. Both tsunami gauge and seismic data are exchanged in real time with the other tsunami warning centres in the United States, Australia and other south-west Pacific countries. Please read our information brochure for more details.

On the website you can find:

• Plots of the relative sea levels on the Tsunami Gauges page.
• Raw data from the gauges.
