southatlantic_coordinates/COORDINATES ===================================== November 2014 Coordinates of South Atlantic tide gauges taken from Google Earth. The start of each line has the PSMSL country/station code. At the latitudes where we usually work, 1 second = approximately 15 metres. Google Earth is thought to have an absolute accuracy of about 10 m in remote areas (emails from Matt King 2014) so it is probably adequate to record positions rounded to seconds. 215/001 to 2000 Gibraltar 36 deg 7'54.39"N 5 deg 21'20.90"W Royal Navy Float Gauge 2005-on 36 deg 8'53.72"N 5 deg 21'53.64"W NOC Radar Gauge in Commercial Harbour 402/001 Ascension 7 deg 53'34.25"S 14 deg 23'8.59"W English Bay 425/001 St Helena 15 deg 55'13.79"S 5 deg 43'4.18"W B gauges 15 deg 55'15.11"S 5 deg 43'4.66"W Radar gauge 428/001 Tristan da Cunha 37 deg 3'51.83"S 12 deg 18'40.37"W 863/001 Port Stanley 51 deg 41'25.22"S 57 deg 51'53.75"W Old UKHO float gauge at Government Jetty 863/002 51 deg 41'32.49"S 57 deg 49'13.85"W NOC tide gauges at FIPASS 866/001 King Edward Point 54 deg 16'59.85"S 36 deg 29'48.32"W 999/103 Rothera 67 deg 34'16.52"S 68 deg 7'47.27"W Tide gauge is in seawater inlet 999/003 Vernadsky 65 deg 14'46.44"S 64 deg 15'26.70"W Float gauge - Signy 60 deg 43'S 45 deg 36'W (approximate position, pressure sensor only) Maps of these locations taken from Google Earth can be found in this directory: southatlanticnetwork_ascension.jpg southatlanticnetwork_kingedwardpoint.jpg southatlanticnetwork_portstanley_fipass.jpg southatlanticnetwork_portstanley_governmentjetty.jpg southatlanticnetwork_rothera.jpg southatlanticnetwork_sthelena.jpg southatlanticnetwork_tristan.jpg southatlanticnnetwork_gibraltar.jpg
