Data were collected by various stations around the globe, not covered by other datasets within this collection, and cover the period from 1900 until 2000. These data are the Met Office's 'old' Land Surface Observation data and have been superseded by the MIDAS dataset collection. This dataset remains for historic purposes only. The data contain measurements of hourly and daily meteorological values, such as rainfall, sunshine duration, temperature, and wind speed.
The MIDAS dataset supersedes this dataset and new users should apply for access to that by following the on-screen instructions. If necessary, you will be able to access this historic dataset once you have been granted access to the MIDAS data.
The dataset contains the measurements of the following parameters:
Sunshine duration
Snow depth
Visibility
Wind speed and wind direction
Temperature
Cloud type
Past and present weather

Data availability and file format
NOTE: The BADC holds the Met Office surface data as provided by the Met Office and therefore the BADC can only supply Surface Met data archived at the Met Office.
The Met Office Land Surface data held at the BADC, are stored in a simple ASCII format (plain text and "human" readable).
