@aaraney any thoughts? |

Looks like this can serve as a sophisticated crosswalk. https://api.water.noaa.gov/nwps/v1/gauges/01013500 {

The datum was derived for surveys from a general adjustment of the first-order leveling nets of both the United States and Canada. In the adjustment, mean sea level was held fixed as observed at 21 tide stations in the United States and 5 in Canada. The year indicates the time of the general adjustment. A synonym for Sea-level Datum of 1929. The geodetic datum is fixed and does not take into account the changing stands of sea level. Because there are many variables affecting sea level, and because the geodetic datum represents a best fit over a broad area, the relationship between the geodetic datum and local mean sea level is not consistent from one location to another in either time or space. For this reason, the National Geodetic Vertical Datum should not be confused with mean sea level. See North American Vertical Datum of 1988 (NAVD 88). NGVD 29 should not be used as Mean Sea Level. NGVD 29 is no longer supported by NGS.",

Thanks for pinging me, @jarq6c! At first glance, this seems like something we should prioritize developing a client for. I've not done much in terms of digging to see what capabilities there are and of those capabilities which we would choose to support, but I will block of some time to explore this more. This is really exciting stuff! |

In the meantime, you should be able to generate a client library for interacting with these apis using something like |

The National Water Prediction Service will replace AHPS this summer and includes APIs that serve observations and forecasts of streamflow and stage. We might consider adding a client tool to support this.
