The site location should be at the mark shown -- or very close. Clicking within the map area (or you can drag the 'CVOO' marker) will display the latitude/longitude of that point.
If the displayed location (or elevation) of the weather observing location is incorrect, please drag the marker to the right location (or click in the right location), and then send the updated information. Please note that we are trying to spot either the Stevenson Screen (or equivalent) or the location where the barometric readings are taken.
The location information for this site was gathered from 6 data sources. This position has been modified based on user feedback. The user provided this information: This is an Environment Canada automatic weather station. I am a technician working for EC and have been to this site many times. It was installed in October 2007 in support of the Vancouver 2010 Olympics. The official EC site report lists the position as 48 29 27.002N 123 43 06.008W. The station itself does not appear on the Google Earth image due to it's recent installation but the location I have provided is within 10m.

Recent observations from this weather station can be downloaded as a CSV file suitable for importing into various spreadsheet programs: last 7 days, last 14 days, last 28 days, last 56 days. This data can also be linked directly from Excel using a Web Query. The main link goes to the page with the data on it, and the IQY link is the Web Query that will access it: last 7 days (IQY: last 7 days), last 14 days (IQY: last 14 days), last 28 days (IQY: last 28 days), last 56 days (IQY: last 56 days).
All the means and standard deviations shown below are from the last 28 days. Change analysis period to Last 3 days Last 7 days Last 14 days Last 8 weeks Last 13 weeks Last 26 weeks Last 39 weeks Last 52 weeks
