Real time meteorological and oceanographic data collected from the Irish moored Weather Buoy network
of stations. Parameters collected include: DateTime (yyyy-mm-ddThh:mm:ss.sss), Atmospheric Pressure (mbar), Air Temperature
(degreeCelsius), DewPoint Temperature (degreeCelsius), Wind Speed (knots), Max Gust Wind Speed (knots), Wind Direction (degreeTrue), Sea
Surface Temperature (degreeCelsius), Wave Period (seconds), Wave Height (metres) and Relative Humidity (%). Real time data available for
M2, M3, M4, M5 and M6. Historical data available for M1, FS1 and original M4 spatial location. The network is managed by the Marine
Institute in collaboration with Met Eireann and the UK Met Office. The Irish Weather Buoy Network is designed to improve weather forecasts
and safety at sea around Ireland. The buoy network provides vital data for weather forecasts, shipping bulletins, gale and swell warnings
as well as data for general public information and research.
The Irish Buoy Network was established in 2000 and maintains five buoys operating around the
coast of Ireland. The project was set up through a highly successful collaboration between Met Eireann, the Marine Institute, the UK Met
Office and the Department of Transport, Tourism and Sport (DTTAS). Since 2017 the project is run by the Marine Institute in collaboration
with Met Eireann funded through the Department of Agriculture and the Marine (DAFM).
