Get the accepted tidal datum values for a station: the elevations of MHHW, MHW, MTL, MSL, DTL, MLW, MLLW, STND, NAVD88 (where computed), plus GT (great diurnal range), MN (mean range), LAT/HAT (lowest/highest astronomical tide), and the station's historical extreme min/max water levels with dates. epoch "current" returns the present National Tidal Datum Epoch (1983–2001) values; "superseded" returns the prior epoch's values (useful for historical comparisons — not all stations have one). All values share one reference zero (the station datum), so datum-to-datum conversion is subtraction: height_above_MLLW = height_above_MSL + (MSL − MLLW). Use this tool to (1) check which datums a station supports before requesting data, and (2) convert heights between datums.
