TIdal CONstants database
The estimation of TIdal CONstants (TICON) is done globally based on in-situ tide gauge observations from GESLA-4. These data can be used to produce local tidal predictions of the ocean tidal heights, important for navigation and flood forecasting. Additionally, these data are crucial for validating global tidal modelling efforts by the community, as conducted at DGFI-TUM.
An interactive map can be found here.
