I’m trying to build a reliable and helpful website here. But at the end of the day it’s a hobby.

For all regional services, the eu-central-1 region was selected.
Lambda. We use lambda functions for two activities: 1/ scrape the data. 2/ process and visualize the data. The fictions are either triggered via EventsManager or as part of a StepFunction.</description></item><item><title>Why</title><link>https://www.pegel-konstanz.de/en/04_about/01_why/index.html</link><pubDate>Tue, 16 Jan 2024 15:26:41 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://www.pegel-konstanz.de/en/04_about/01_why/index.html</guid><description>Why actually? This website is the result of a learning project. My real goal was to learn more about data analysis in general. I was looking for a suitable data set for this. And the level data for Lake Constance became available quite quickly. Since I grew up on Lake Constance, I have a connection to the data. The data itself is publicly accessible (#opendata). And the data set for the Konstanz measuring station is around 200 MB in size. This is a pretty ideal size, as you can no longer process this amount of data in Excel or other spreadsheet programs. But this is just tiny for analysis with Python / Pandas.</description></item><item><title>Release Notes</title><link>https://www.pegel-konstanz.de/en/04_about/03_release-notes/index.html</link><pubDate>Tue, 31 Dec 2024 15:26:41 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://www.pegel-konstanz.de/en/04_about/03_release-notes/index.html</guid><description>Release Notes 2026 2026-08-17: Add Radolfzell (Untersee). Added data for Radolfzell (Untersee) as a new chapter from new AWS account.
2026-08-14: Add temperature. Added water temperature as first data point from the new AWS account.
2026-07-11: Low water level info removed. The low water level continues to set a new record low. However, I am going on vacation now, so I cannot—and do not want to—provide updates.</description></item><item><title>Contact and Imprint</title><link>https://www.pegel-konstanz.de/en/04_about/04_contact-imprint/index.html</link><pubDate>Tue, 16 Jan 2024 15:26:41 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://www.pegel-konstanz.de/en/04_about/04_contact-imprint/index.html</guid><description>You can find more information about me on a separate blog: davidbeck.online

Since it was about data analysis in Python right from the start, it seemed sensible to put together a logo using characters. There are no pretty pictures of Lake Constance on this website. There are already enough of them. It’s all about numbers - and the graphical representation of them.</description></item></channel></rss>
