Station Information EDEN Station Name: L28_GAP Operating Agency: SFWMD USGS NWIS Agency Code: FL005 USGS NWIS ID: 260727080590100 Latitude (DMS) NAD83: 26°07'28" Longitude (DMS) NAD83: -80°59'00" UTM Easting Zone 17N (meters NAD83): 501659.4 UTM Northing Zone 17N (meters NAD83): 2889475.3 Location Area: Big Cypress National Preserve Real-time data (daily): Yes

 

Data Links (Please note: the links below marked by this icon will take you off of the EDEN website.) [Information about these links] As of March 5, 2012, all water-level data for gages operated by Everglades National Park and South Florida Water Management District will only be available in NWIS (accessed through the EDEN website) for the past 3 years. To obtain historic data, please contact Pamela Telis (patelis@usgs.gov). A change in the USGS NWIS database limits availability of other agency's data. The EDEN team is working on a resolution to this situation.

Datum Information Vertical Datum for Water Level Data: NAVD88 Vertical Conversion at Gage (ft) used by EDEN (NGVD29 to NAVD88): -1.42 Help Why are all gage data not referenced to the same datum? How do I convert data at a gage from one datum to another? How were the vertical conversions at gages determined by EDEN?
