ERDDAP   Easier access to oceanographic data

Embed a Graph in a Web Page

1. In ERDDAP, search for a dataset of interest.
2. Click on the dataset's graph link to see the Make A Graph web page.
3. Modify the graph until it looks like you want it to.
4. Specify the File Type (for example, .png) and get the URL from the "view the URL" textfield.
5. Replace all instances of "&" in the URL with "&".
6. For gridded datasets, modify the URL to refer to the "(last)" date/time instead of a specific date/time.
7. Make an img tag in your HTML document which refers to that modified URL, for example

   <img src="http://coastwatch.pfel.noaa.gov/erddap/griddap/erdBAssta5day.png?sst[(last)][(0.0)][(22.0):(50.0)][(225.0):(255.0)]&amp;.draw=surface&amp;.vars=longitude|latitude|sst&amp;.colorBar=Rainbow|C|Linear|8|32|" alt="SST, Blended, West US (Experimental, 5 Day Composite)">

   Or, if you want to be fancy, here is an example that includes "largest" and "edit" links.
   Note that the URLs have different file extensions (.largePng, .graph, and .png).

   <a href="http://coastwatch.pfel.noaa.gov/erddap/griddap/erdBAssta5day.largePng?sst[(last)][(0.0)][(22.0):(50.0)][(225.0):(255.0)]&amp;.draw=surface&amp;.vars=longitude|latitude|sst&amp;.colorBar=Rainbow|C|Linear|8|32|">largest</a>
   <a href="http://coastwatch.pfel.noaa.gov/erddap/griddap/erdBAssta5day.graph?sst[(last)][(0.0)][(22.0):(50.0)][(225.0):(255.0)]&amp;.draw=surface&amp;.vars=longitude|latitude|sst&amp;.colorBar=Rainbow|C|Linear|8|32|">edit image / download data</a>
   <br>
   <img src="http://coastwatch.pfel.noaa.gov/erddap/griddap/erdBAssta5day.png?sst[(last)][(0.0)][(22.0):(50.0)][(225.0):(255.0)]&amp;.draw=surface&amp;.vars=longitude|latitude|sst&amp;.colorBar=Rainbow|C|Linear|8|32|" alt="SST, Blended, West US (Experimental, 5 Day Composite)">

   That example makes these links and this image:
