    "title": "Met Office MIDAS Open: UK Land Surface Stations Data (1853-current)",
    "abstract": "MIDAS Open is the open data version of the Met Office Integrated Data Archive System (MIDAS) containing land surface station data starting from 1853 and ending at the of the previous complete year. This collection comprises of hourly and daily weather measurements and observations of parameters relating to temperature, rainfall, sunshine, radiation, wind and weather observations such as present weather codes, cloud cover, snow etc.\r\n\r\nThe collection contains land surface observations data from those stations where the data have been designated as public sector information. Prior to version v202407 this consisted of stations operated by the Met Office only, but from version v202407, daily and hourly rainfall observations from stations with gauges owned by the Environment Agency (EA), Scottish Environment Protection Agency (SEPA) and Natural Resources Wales (NRW) have also been included in the collection. Since then, stations owned by other third-party organisations where approval for inclusion has been reached have also been added to the product.\r\n\r\nAll of these data are provided under an Open Government Licence. \r\n\r\nThe current collection contains the following proportions of the fuller MIDAS dataset collection:\r\n\r\n96% of daily temperature observations\r\n96% of daily weather observations\r\n92% of hourly weather observations\r\n94% of daily rainfall observations\r\n96% of hourly rainfall observations\r\n98% of soil temperature observations\r\n96% of solar radiation observations\r\n93% of mean wind observations\r\n\r\nDaily rainfall: Versions up until MIDAS Open v202407 only have about 13% coverage of observations. In version v202407, the coverage was increased to 58% with the inclusion of the third-party hydrological agency stations. In version v202507, the coverage was increased further to 94% with the inclusion of historic closed stations.\r\n\r\nThe fuller \"Met Office Integrated Data Archive System (MIDAS) Land and Marine Surface Stations Data (1853-current)\" collection is made available for academic use via the Centre for Environmental Data Analysis.\r\n\r\nThe MIDAS Open collection is updated annually in a delayed mode to ensure that data acquisition and quality control procedures have all been completed. Quality controlled (qc-version-1) and non-quality controlled (qc-version-0) data are available from 1853 where available, although this will vary by station depending on the operation period of the station. The collection includes stations which are currently operational as well as stations which were operational in the past and have since closed.\r\n\r\nEach version of the dataset will include data up until the end of the previous complete year relative to the year in the version number of the dataset (e.g. v202407 included data up until the end of 2023).\r\n\r\nNote: This collection does not supersede the full MIDAS collection which is also archived at CEDA.",
