The California 2015 water year goes from 2014-10-01 to 2015-09-30. The California 2016 water year goes from 2015-10-01 to 2016-09-30 (Note: 2016 was a leap year). There are a number of datasets available: daily and hourly weather for a subset of CIMIS stations; the CIMIS station data used for Spatial CIMIS; and Spatial CIMIS data clipped to the Delta. Included in the project is a Makefile for recreating all these data. If you need a slightly different dataset, that should be helpful in processing steps. The Makefile uses [```httpie```](http://httpie.org) and [```jq```](https://stedolan.github.io/jq/) for processing. @@ -17,14 +17,13 @@ Bryte | 155 | | Brentwood | 47 Davis | 6 | | Manteca | 70 Winters | 139 | | Tracy | 167 Dixon | 121 | | Pleasanton | 191 -Lodi West | 166 || Modesto | 71 +Lodi West* | 166 || Modesto | 71 -You can use this handy [Overview Map](https://www.google.com/maps/d/edit?mid=zDpfBkZvP6Yk.kvF3ZvPShMdE&usp=sharing) to locate where these stations are located. - - +*Lodi West (station ID = 166) went offline on 3/20/2015 +You can use this handy [Overview Map](https://www.google.com/maps/d/edit?mid=zDpfBkZvP6Yk.kvF3ZvPShMdE&usp=sharing) to locate where these stations are located. -### Daily Station ```daily_station/2015.wy/[station](.json|.csv)``` +### Daily Station ```daily_station/[year].wy/[station](.json|.csv)``` The easiest way to download CIMIS station data is via the [CIMIS API](http://et.water.ca.gov).
