Vigicrues - Hauteurs et débits des cours d’eauVigicrues - River water levels and flow rates
This API provides continuous real-time monitoring data from the French Vigicrues flood-warning network, covering water levels and flow rates measured at nearly 1,700 telemetered gauging stations across French rivers. It includes recent evolution of these measurements over past hours and days, allowing tracking of river conditions and flood risk trends. The underlying data feeds the public Vigicrues website, which is operated by French water authorities to monitor and communicate flood risk. It is useful for hydrological monitoring, flood risk assessment, and applications requiring near-real-time river gauge data across national territory.Le réseau Vigicrues collecte en continue les niveaux d’eau et les débits des cours d’eau observés en temps réel sur près de 1700 points de mesure télétransmis, ainsi que leurs évolutions au cours des derniers jours et des dernières heures. Ces mesures sont visualisables sur le site Vigicrues : le...
