noaa_coastwatch_dataset_info ~318 tokens
Variable names, units, axes, time coverage and licence for one CoastWatch ERDDAP dataset. CALL THIS BEFORE QUERYING DATA: ERDDAP variable names are case-sensitive and frequently UPPERCASE (NDBC water temperature is WTMP, not wtmp), and a wrong case is an error that reads as "this station does not me
noaa_coastwatch_griddap_point ~482 tokens
One gridded value at one time, latitude and longitude — sea surface temperature, chlorophyll-a, wind or current from a CoastWatch satellite or model grid. ERDDAP snaps to the nearest grid cell, so an approximate position is fine. AUTHORITATIVE for "how warm was the ocean at this spot on this date":
