        I’m just wondering if anybody is seeing a problem with download readings. I’m not able to download readings – its timing out after 5minutes -sometimes it seems to work but its not clear why.

        I realize there are some nifty ways of compressing data – and it may not all be quickly available. The DOWNLOAD SENSOR DATA doesn’t offer any options – its just a basic press request – and now its failing.  Typically other websites will do it as batch job.

        Just wondering if in software development this is what is called the Valley of Death

          Neil, there is a faster and more flexible way to extract data from Monitor My Watershed. Instead of using the CSV download button, try using either python or R to extract specific time periods of data for specific sensors and stations. Sara has documented these methods here:  python version and R version.
