Canadian meteorological buoy data are collected by Environment and Climate Change Canada. This subset consisting of Lake Winnipeg meteorological buoy data is extracted from [**realtime buoy data**](https://catalogue.cioospacific.ca/dataset/ca-cioos_ae6d17ac-c26c-4b96-8c3c-b795545ebc67) hosted by the [**Canadian Integrated Ocean Observing System (CIOOS)**](https://cioospacific.ca/).
These buoys are seasonal and are placed in the lake at the beginning of the open water season and removed before ice cover in the fall (approximately May-September).
The authoritative source for this data is Environment and Climate Change Canada, and can be found [here](https://www.meds-sdmm.dfo-mpo.gc.ca/isdm-gdsi/waves-vagues/index-eng.htm). This data consists of complete wave data from all meteorological buoys, models, and unofficial Meteorological Service of Canada (MSC) observations.
