Yes – it is programmed in PHP, which is then run as a shell script every minute using cron. I’ll try and get the script tidied up and posted somewhere. Will email you with a link once I do.

Thanks,

Stuart

Would you be willing to share or do you have examples of this quick script? What language are you using, PHP?

Thanks,
Amado

Which particular beaches would it be most useful to create Twides for? As the tide varies at each beach they need to created specially for each beach or small area. If you can list a few I’ll see if I can find some data sources for those tides.

Thanks,

At this time I was collecting new stuff for a new anchor story on Christchurch for our German travel guide to New Zealand when I was sent by Yahoo to your page. Actually, I didn’t find exactly what I expected. But, your article has given me inspiration for another article. Insofar: Thanks.

Kind regards,
Maria

Yes! LINZ (Land Informaition New Zealand) have data for ‘Waikato River Entrance’ tides, so if that is the one you want I’ll try and find time over the next few days to create the feed. I’ll need a photo with rights use to use as the Twitter profile (CreativeCommons etc), so if you have a good photo of the area that you could send to me, that would be great.

Thanks,

Stuart
