Appendix 1. Hurricane Wilma Storm-Tide Data Files, October 2005
All data collected for this study from the temporary stations are presented as text files. All temporary stations recorded 30-second data. Data presented include date and time, water-level and barometric sensor pressure in pounds per square inch (PSI), arbitrary water elevation in feet, storm-tide water elevation in feet relative to NAVD 88, and lowest recordable water elevation in feet relative to NAVD 88. The lowest recordable water elevation was set to 0.05 ft above the elevation of the water-level sensor. Also presented are all data used to adjust pressure data from inundated sensors to storm-tide elevation above NAVD 88. All data collected for this study from the real-time permanent stations are also presented. Permanent (real-time) stations recorded 15-minute data. Data presented includes date and time, and storm-tide water elevation relative to NAVD 88. Data was pulled from the USGS database as computed unit-value data. Time-series graphs for all stations presented in this report (temporary and real-time) are also presented.
Units of measure:
Water-level Pressure: PSI, pounds per square inch
Barometric Pressure: PSI, pounds per square inch
Arbitrary Elevation: ft, feet
Storm-tide Elevation: ft, feet (relative to North American Vertical Datum of 1988)
Lowest Recordable Elevation: ft, feet (relative to North American Vertical Datum of 1988)
