| # GeoNet API (api.geonet.org.nz) | ||
|
|
||
| ## GeoNet API Network Sensor changes (March 2026) | ||
| The GeoNet API endpoints that were providing information about the GeoNet sensor network have been reviewed and modified for improved usability. | ||
|
|
||
| Key changes: | ||
| - additional sensor types can now be queried (e.g. cameras, environmental sensors, scandoas, geomagnetic sensors) | ||
| - sensor types categories and associated numbering changed (client sensor search queries might be impacted) | ||
| - seismic stations metadata endpoint updated (and details now queried from GeoNet metadata database (delta) and not GeoNet FDSN station service) | ||
| - GNSS station metadata enpoint updated | ||
| - Network Data endpoint updated (XXXX ADD MORE INFO HERE XXXXX) | ||
|
|
||
| ### Sensors types | ||
| Sensor types listing reviewed to include additional types (and data domains). Numbering and categories have been reviewed. | ||
| The endpoint to query sensor type is `https://api.geonet.org.nz/network/sensor/type` | ||
|
|
||
| Previous API version was returing | ||
| ``` | ||
| 1: Accelerometer | ||
| 2: Barometer | ||
| 3: Broadband Seismometer | ||
| 4: GNSS Antenna | ||
| 5: Hydrophone | ||
| 6: Microphone | ||
| 7: Pressure Sensor | ||
| 8: Short Period Borehole Seismometer | ||
| 9: Short Period Seismometer | ||
| 10: Strong Motion Sensor | ||
| ``` | ||
|
|
||
| New API version is returnig | ||
| ``` | ||
| 1: Air pressure sensor | ||
| 2: Broadband seismometer | ||
| 3: Coastal sea level gauge | ||
| 4: DART bottom pressure recorder | ||
| 5: DOAS spectrometer | ||
| 6: Environmental sensor | ||
| 7: Geomagnetic sensor | ||
| 8: GNSS/GPS | ||
| 9: Lake level gauge | ||
| 10: Manual collection | ||
| 11: Short period seismometer | ||
| 12: Strong motion sensor | ||
| 13: Camera | ||
| ``` | ||

There was a problem hiding this comment. To get detailed information on a specific sensor use network/sensors?sensorType=n&station=stationcode |

||
| ### Sensor search | ||
|
There was a problem hiding this comment. to get a list of sensors, use https://api.geonet.org.nz/network/station?sensorType=n[,m] There was a problem hiding this comment. I would like to add some notes on the end points notes on who to replace these end points (which are working but are deprecated?) |

I'm putting in comments to help work out where we need to add more detail.
Not sure what the Network data end point changes ATM
