Add topicSource of data for this image
[edit]Hi there, this image https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:2011-Sendai-Tsunami-DART-21413-AB.png was uploaded by you, just wondering if you know the source of the data? I was thinking about re-creating it as an SVG image but I would need the original data to do so. Cheers! MrAureliusR (talk) 02:55, 29 January 2023 (UTC)
- The chart was made in Excel and it was based on raw DART data. At that time it was available from National Data Buoy Center (it was called "Real Time Data in tabular form for the last forty-five days" with 1-minute measurement resolution). Chepry (talk) 01:25, 30 January 2023 (UTC)
