The IEM collects data from a number of stand alone sensors. This page contains links to data from these sites.
These are four ground water monitoring wells and a stream gage located at the Stuart Smith Park in Ames. These data are used by the Geology 100 class, but are freely available to others.
These two sensors sit on the bridges over top their respective lakes. Their purpose is to monitor for high winds impacting traffic.
