This WMS viewing service, published by the Swedish Meteorological and Hydrological Institute (SMHI), displays oceanographic stations measuring mean wave direction. It shows all stations that have ever delivered data for this parameter, with measurements collected from ships (FerryBox systems) or sea buoys. The service is intended for map-based visualization of station locations and coverage rather than for retrieving the underlying observation data itself, and is freely accessible without authentication within Sweden's national oceanographic monitoring network.Visningstjänsten är en WMS-tjänst som visar oceanografiska stationer som mäter vågriktning. Tjänsten visar alla stationer som någonsin levererat data för denna parametrar. Insamlade från fartyg (FERRYBOX) eller havsbojar.
