AndreaBozzo/ceres-open-data-index huggingface dataset:
Real-time and Near-real-time river level data

This dataset covers monitoring data that is only updated on our systems on a daily update cycle. This is usually increased during times of flooding etc.
 Readings are transferred via telemetry to internal and external systems in, or close to real time. This data may be transferred to these systems or users at different intervals varying, for example, from once per day during normal conditions to several times per day during a flood event.
 Measurements of the height (m) of water in a river, lake or coastal site taken using automatic field devices, usually every 15 mins.
 Information is available for 1400 river gauging stations (where flow is also measured) and 1800 river level only monitoring sites throughout England, as well as some reservoirs and coastal sites.

Real-time Rainfall Data

This record is for Approval for Access product AfA501 for approximately 1000 automatic rainfall data from the Environment Agency rainfall API. 

The data is available on an update cycle which varies across the country, typically updated daily but updated faster is rainfall is detected. This is update frequency is usually increased during times of flooding, etc. 

Readings are transferred via telemetry to internal and external systems in or close to real-time. 

Measurement of the rainfall is taken in millimetres (mm) accumulated over 15 minutes. Note that rainfall data is recorded in GMT, so during British Summer Time (BST) data may appear to be an hour old.  Data comes from a network of over 1000 gauges across England. Data shown is raw data collected from the gauges and is subject to quality control procedures. As a result, values may change after publication on this website. 

Continuous rainfall information is also stored on our hydrometric archive, Wiski, and can be provided in non real-time on request through our customer contact centre. This raw rainfall data is provided to the Met Office for quality control along with all the data from our registered daily storage gauges (c.1400). The quality controlled dataset is covered in AfA148 Quality Controlled Daily and Monthly Raingauge Data from Environment Agency Gauges.

Data from a small selection of Met Office raingauges are included in our open data feed. This data is also available from the Met Office as open data. Attribution statement: © Environment Agency copyright and/or database right 2016. All rights reserved.

Real-time Flood Data River Levels

This record is for Approval for Access product AfA104 Real-time Flood Data River Levels via our API. 

This dataset covers monitoring data that is only updated on our systems during a routine daily update cycle, some sites will update more frequently as we update the field technology used over the next few years till 2025. During times of flooding, or other water level related incidents our update frequency can be increased if the technology at site allows.

Readings are transferred via telemetry to internal and external systems in or close to real-time. This data is transferred to other systems, including the API. 

Data for sites in Wales is included in the Open Data feed, but is owned by Natural Resources Wales (NRW). NRW also class the data as Open Data, and you may use it under the same terms as the England data (the standard Open Government Licence, available on The National Archives website).

Measurements of the height (m) of water in a river lake or coastal site are taken using automatic field instruments and typically log the value every 15 minutes. Information is available for 1400 river gauging stations (where flow is also measured) and 1800 river level only monitoring sites throughout England as well as some reservoirs and coastal sites.

Modelled fluvial flood depth data with climate change created 2004: 0.1  percent annual chance for grid reference   TL

This modelled fluvial flood depth data with climate change was created for the  0.1% annual chance of flooding situations and was produced as a by-product from the 2004 generalised modelling project. The purpose of the generalised modelling project was to fill the gaps where there was no detailed local modelled data in 2004, in order to define the extents of Flood Zones for spatial planning.
The purpose of this climate change data was to provide a high-level sensitivity analysis of the possible effects of climate change based on a 20% increase in peak flows in the fluvial modelling.
A two-dimensional hydrodynamic model called JFlow was used to produce this modelled fluvial flood depth data on a 5x5m grid.
Since 2004, some local detailed modelling projects have included scenarios for climate change however this climate change dataset has not been updated.
INFORMATION WARNING:                     This data is not suitable for identifying whether an individual property will flood due to climate change, for detailed decision making or for use in site specific Flood Risk or Strategic Flood Risk Assessments. Where this data is used further evidence, verification and studies should be undertaken. Climate change allowances have changed since this work was completed in 2004.
More recent, accurate and local detailed modelling depth data with climate change is available for some places. Please contact your local Environment Agency office to see if detailed modelling is available for your area of interest. 
This metadata record is for Approval for Access product AfA480 2004 Climate Change 1 in 1000 Fluvial Flood Depth Grids
Modelled fluvial flood depth data with climate change are available for the whole of England, however this data is for the 100x100km squared Ordnance Survey National Grid reference    TL. If you are interested in data for another grid reference refer to this Ordnance Survey National Grid document to find the relevant referencing code and search on Data.gov.uk again to download the data.
