Dataset card

Type: not stated
Format: Tabular (JSON API responses + CSV on request)
Volume: ~30,000 monitored stations. Order-of-magnitude series volume: 30,000 stations x hourly-ish readings x several years of archive = low hundreds of millions to ~1B+ individual gauge observations; plus station metadata table and a per-station warn/alarm event log. Site's own CSV/API description implies whole-basin extracts are producible.
Users: Low thousands of end users on the consumer/warning side (inferred from free app + registered warning-notification accounts); commercial side is a small institutional base - est. 50-150 paying organisations and app publishers, inferred from the listed customer/partner logos (Austrian federal ministry BMLRT, fire-brigade associations, hydromet instrument firms, several municipalities).
History: 15 years
Update frequency: not stated
Growth: Active but small-team: site advertises iOS/Android/Web apps, an API with pricing tiers and CSV extracts, and names instrument makers (OTT Hydromet, Microtronics) as cooperation partners - an operating service, not a frozen project.
Launched: ~2013-2016 (inferred: team bio notes co-founders as kitesurf buddies since 2006, API example payloads dated 2020 already mature, and the service is an established Austrian gauge aggregator; treat launch as mid-2010s, not a recent start-up)
