In order to setup ODST for your project we have to receive weather forecast data in a certain format.

Please use the below email templates when requesting weather data from Meterological Insitute. If you are requesting both wave spectra and tabulated forecast the templates can be combined.

Once the forecaster has comfirmed the setup, please share the information with the ODST team.


Tabulated data

"Dear MetInstitute,

I would like to raise a formal request for Luna API access to tabulated forecast data at *INSERT FIELD NAME* field, located at (*INSTER COORDINATES*). The forecast should be active from *INSERT DATE HERE*.

This request is so that we can stream the data into our internal weather assessment tool called ODST (Offshore Decision Support Tool). We have already connected to your service in the past. As such, please would it be possible to assist with the following:

- Make the forecast available for client ID: luna-subsea7

- Provide API location ID

Please contact ODST@subsea7.com or odstsupport@4subsea.com if you have any technical queries about data format.
