JSON Format
A JSON packet is produced once every ten minutes, with a 30 minute delay, and uploaded to the Council’s data lake:
timestamp is in UTC
lat/lon are in WGS84 decimal degree format
height is Surface elevation above MSL in meters
east_velocity is Eastward surface current velocity in m/s
north_velocity is Northward surface current velocity in m/s
current_direction_true is the surface current direction in degrees true North
current_direction_magnetic is the surface current direction in degrees magnetic North (22.5 degree offset)
current_speed_knots is the current speed in knots
measurement_id is unique for every ten minute period

NMEA Format
One sentence type is produced and sent once a minute, with all data on a 30 minute delay. Each sentence is followed by a CR/LF. Sentences contain:
Current direction in degrees True North (“T”)
Current direction in degrees Magnetic North (“M”)
Current speed in knots (“N”)
