River Stage Data -- Real-time and Historic - Corps of Engineers, New Orleans District 
 
Current Hydrologic Stage Data
      Water resources information available includes near real-time and 
      historical stage data, collected by 50-plus automated gage 
      data-collection-platforms (DCP's) located throughout the New Orleans 
      District. These gages record hourly readings, and the data is collected 
      via satelite up-link approximately every four hours. In addition, there 
      are 140-plus gages that record daily (0800) stage data. This data is 
      collected manually, on approximately a monthly basis. The data is provided 
      as both graphics and text files, either of which may be displayed by your 
      'browser' or downloaded for further analysis.
