title,note,,, Reference WATERBASE - Rivers: stations characteristic data,The Stations table contains data on the EUROWATERNET river monitoring stations' physical characteristics. Each station has been assigned a unique WATERBASE identifier (WaterbaseID) which can be used to link the Stations with their respective Quality and Pressure data. The meta data below provides detailed information on the content and format of the Stations table. The actual Stations table can be downloaded using the Downloads link at the foot of this page or via the Downloads tab section. A sample of the data stored in this table can be viewed by clicking on the Example View in the Details section.,,, Item,Definition,note,Data Type,Key CountryCode,CountryCode,ISO 3166-alpha-2 code elements,varchar(2),No WaterbaseID,WaterbaseID,"Internally produced, unique identifier used to represent the monitoring stations for rivers or lakes or the groundwater bodies",varchar(20),Yes WaterBodyType,WaterBodyType,"R = River, L = Lake, GW = Groundwater",varchar(2),No WaterbaseName,WaterbaseName,"Name of the river station, lake or groundwater body",nvarchar(200),No NationalStationID,NationalStationID,National station identifier of river or lake monitoring station or groundwater body,nvarchar(50),No RiverName,RiverName,River name at the national level,nvarchar(100),No CatchmentName,CatchmentName,Catchment name at the national level,nvarchar(100),No CatchmentArea,CatchmentArea,Upstream catchment area in km2,float(8),No Altitude,Altitude,Altitude of monitoring station in m above sea level,float(8),No Longitude,Longitude,(X) International geographical co-ordinates of the monitoring station in decimal degrees format,float(8),No Latitude,Latitude,(Y) International geographical co-ordinates of the monitoring station in decimal degrees format,float(8),No Region,Region,Region in which water body is located at the national level,nvarchar(100),No RevisionYear,RevisionYear,Last year of revision or update of characteristics,int(4),No StationType,StationType,"Type of monitoring station.
