WARNING:
* Queries for data MUST include stationID= and time>=.
* Queries USUALLY include time<= (the default end time corresponds to 'now').
* Queries MUST be for less than 30 days worth of data.
* The data source isn't completely reliable. If your request returns no data
  when you think it should:
  * Try revising the request (e.g., a different time range).
  * The list of stations offering this data may be incorrect.
  * Sometimes a station or the entire data service is unavailable.
    Wait a while and try again.";

Using tabledap to Request Data and Graphs from Tabular Datasets

tabledap lets you request a data subset, a graph, or a map from a tabular dataset (for example, buoy data), via a specially formed URL. tabledap uses the OPeNDAP (external link) Data Access Protocol (DAP) (external link) and its selection constraints (external link).

The URL specifies what you want: the dataset, a description of the graph or the subset of the data, and the file type for the response.

Tabledap request URLs must be in the form
https://coastwatch.pfeg.noaa.gov/erddap/tabledap/datasetID.fileType{?query}
For example,
https://coastwatch.pfeg.noaa.gov/erddap/tabledap/pmelTaoDySst.htmlTable?longitude,latitude,time,station,wmo_platform_code,T_25&time>=2015-05-23T12:00:00Z&time<=2015-05-31T12:00:00Z
Thus, the query is often a comma-separated list of desired variable names, followed by a collection of constraints (e.g., variable<value), each preceded by '&' (which is interpreted as "AND").

For details, see the tabledap Documentation.
