Question Indonesia Tides?

Hi All


I'm a long time user of Opencpn and hope to head into Indonesia in the neat future.


Tidal info in Opencpn / cmap is basically limited to US (& colonies), Europe, Aus & NZ - nothing for Indonesia as far as I can see. A trawl on the web has produced nothing beyond UK Hydrographic Office tidal almanacs and software. £££



Does anyone have any ideas where I could get hold of this Indonesian tidal data?


Thanks

Re: Indonesia Tides?

Just loaded the World Vector Shoreline into WXTide and it makes it a lot easier to identfy tide stations:

Re: Indonesia Tides?


Thanks Alan, I'd seen them. My question should have been more specific. Online access not possible in remote islands. Don't want to download tons of data for months ahead. I wanted an app such as xtide or wtide.

Update

Yes, I already had this set up, very few (~8) tidal stations in Indonesia which led to my question. Nowhere relevant to my plans.


Your load of WVS shows many more stations.


I'll reinstall xtide (Linux)



Thanks for your help

Don't know about the Linux XTide, but the Windows WXTide shows 177 stations for Indonesis with both the old shoreline and WVS.

Yes, some problems with Linux! I've used both wtide and xtide but hadn't seen wxtide. Had to go back to Windows Grrr and installed wxtide and wvs. Perfect except for the windows bit :-( but I'll live with it.


Cheers Stu!
