Marine Observation Station D Miami-Dade County
About This Dataset
This dataset shows the exact locations of NOAA buoys monitoring ocean conditions in and around Miami-Dade waters, including real-time data like water temperature, wave height, and wind speed. It's essential for anyone tracking marine conditions—boaters, fishermen, coastal planners, and emergency responders all rely on this data to stay safe and make informed decisions about our waters.
Why This Matters
- A recreational boater checking current wave and wind conditions before heading offshore
- A coastal property owner monitoring storm surge and water level data during hurricane season
- A fishing guide planning trips based on real-time water temperature and marine observations from the nearest buoys
