Automatic tower stations - Measurement values

SwissMetNet, the automatic monitoring network of MeteoSwiss, comprises 3 automatic tower stations that measure at heights of 150 m to 230 m above ground. The data set contains current measurements for each station on temperature, wind, humidity, sunshine duration, and radiation in 10 minutes ('t'), hourly ('h'), daily ('d'), monthly ('m') and yearly ('y') resolutions. There are updated data sets since midnight ('now'), from the current year up to yesterday ('recent') and since the beginning of the measurement in ten-year increments ('historical'). If you need hourly, daily, monthly or yearly values, we strongly recommend that you download the corresponding resolution.
