Academic Task 2000 (Online)

Online tidal analysis package. This service will allow researchers to run the NTSLF tidal analysis software using their own tidal data files.

The TASK 2000 (Online) service allows users to

• perform tidal analysis on user-uploaded data files (outputs Harmonic Constituents and Tidal Residuals)
• generate predictions with user downloaded harmonic constituents (outputs Tidal Predictions)
• filter user data to daily and monthly mean values

Available in part test mode now - unless you understand the above you are unlikely to be able to run the software successfully


Please note that your data files must be in the specified format, i.e., you will need to have some way of reformatting your data files, e.g., by using either PVWave, Matlab, FORTRAN, C or some other scripting language or package.

Please note that we can only offer this service for academic research
If you do not supply an academic e-mail address you must say why you are not using one
You need to supply your own tide gauge data
If you are unfamilar with terms such as "Harmonic Analysis" please read up on them before registering

PSMSL/POL Tidal Analysis Software Kit 2000 (TASK-2000 Package)

Status as of March 2006

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The package used to be made available for running under DOS, but this has become outdated in recent years and we no longer make it available.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.
