Wheather observing stations. Meteorological stations

Met Éireanns; INSPIRE datasets comprise information on rainfall, sunshine, wind, pressure, temperature and humidity datasets from our observation network. The datasets are obtained from existing and historical recording sites. The datasets have minute data from Automatic Weather Stations, hourly data from Synoptic Weather Stations and daily and monthly data from Stations. The temporal resolution and extent is station dependent. These are national datasets. Data can be accessed via the Met Éireann website at: https://www.met.ie/climate/available-data.
