Column	Type	Description
station_number	string	Water Survey of Canada station number, e.g. '08MF005' (Fraser River at Hope). Stable identifier from the hydrometric-stations collection.
station_name	string	Official Water Survey of Canada station name, e.g. 'FRASER RIVER AT HOPE'.
province	string	Province/territory code of the station (e.g. BC, ON, NT) as published by the Water Survey of Canada.
country_code	string	ISO 3166-1 alpha-3 country code; always 'CAN'. Join key for the 'Enrich with public data' feature.
latitude	float	Station latitude in decimal degrees (WGS84), from the hydrometric-stations collection.
longitude	float	Station longitude in decimal degrees (WGS84), from the hydrometric-stations collection.
discharge_m3s	float	River discharge (flow) in cubic metres per second. Daily dataset: mean of all unit values for the UTC day (HYDAT's own daily-mean definition); null when the day has no valid observations. Latest dataset: instantaneous value at discharge_observed_at_utc. (unit: m3/s)
discharge_observed_at_utc	string	Timestamp of the latest discharge observation (ISO 8601, UTC).
level_m	float	Water level in metres relative to the station datum (can be negative). Daily dataset: mean of all unit values for the UTC day; null when the day has no valid observations. Latest dataset: instantaneous value at level_observed_at_utc. (unit: m)
level_observed_at_utc	string	Timestamp of the latest water-level observation (ISO 8601, UTC).
