The TASK-2000 package originated from a set of PC-based DOS programs for tidal analysis derived primarily from the TIRA tidal analysis programs (Murray, M.T. 1964. A general method for the analysis of hourly heights of the tide. International Hydrographic Review, 41(2), 91-101) used at POL for many years. They were supplemented by DOS-compatible plotting software supplied by the POL Applications Group.
The package used to be made available for running under DOS, but this has become outdated in recent years and we no longer make it available. A modified version called TIDE TASKS FOR WINDOWS, which can be run under Windows, has been constructed by colleagues at Israel Oceanographic & Limnological Research: Click here to download it.
The TASK software in either Windows or Online forms has been assembled for use by educational and research establishments in the course of sea level research. NEITHER package is supplied freely to commercial organisations.
