In 1986, NOAA initiated a long-term field program in the northeast Pacific and the program was expanded in 1987 to include shallow-water BPR sites maintained and operated by the United States Army Corps of Engineers along the United States west coast and Hawaii. The Pacific Tsunami Observation Program (PacTOP) included five permanent deep-ocean observational sites in the northeast Pacific Ocean to monitor the seismically active Alaska-Aleutian Seismic Zone because of the potential threat to United States coastal regions. During the mid-90's, the individual BPR package is now part of a real-time tsunami detection package, the Deep-ocean Assessment and Reporting of Tsunamis (DART). The National Geophysical Data Center (NGDC) serves as the archive center for this data and provides the historical data to users.

Bottom Pressure Recorder: An acoustic modem, acoustic release unit and battery pack bolted to a platform, to which a disposable anchor, flotation, and recovery aids are attached Depth The ship-measured depth (meters) of the ocean at which the buoy was moored. The ship-measured depth is not as accurate as the BPR-measured pressure. To obtain the most precise depth, convert the bottom pressure to depth. If value is 99999, depth is unknown. 1550 1550 meters meters Latitude Latitude is measured from the equator, with positive values going north and negative values going south. 45.9597 45.9597 decimal degrees decimal degrees Longitude Longitude is measured from the Prime Meridian (which is the longitude that runs through Greenwich, England), with positive values going east and negative values going west. -129.9643 -129.9643 decimal degrees decimal degrees Latitude Latitude is measured from the equator, with positive values going north and negative values going south. 45.9597 45.9597 decimal degrees decimal degrees Longitude Longitude is measured from the Prime Meridian (which is the longitude that runs through Greenwich, England), with positive values going east and negative values going west. -129.9643 -129.9643 decimal degrees decimal degrees Sample_rate This is the period, in seconds, at which the buoy makes a measurement.
