Pegel3.4.3 - App Store

Pegel.app keeps current water levels, measurements and forecasts at your fingertips - clearly presented, quick to access and available directly on the map.

The app displays gauges on rivers, waterways and coastal areas throughout Germany. The information is obtained from public data sources maintained by the Federal Waterways and Shipping Administration and other responsible authorities.

Features:
- Current water levels from numerous gauges
- Water-level forecasts, where available
- Forecast values grouped by date for several days
- Measurement history and trends
- Astronomical deviation between observed water levels and predicted tides, where available
- High and low tide times at tidal gauges
- Map with gauge locations
- Sorting by name or distance
- Search by gauge, waterway or region
- Favourites for frequently used stations
- Reference water levels and vertical datums
- Water and air temperatures, where provided by the station
- Sunrise, sunset, moon phase and weather information
- German, English, French, Dutch, Norwegian and Spanish
- For vessels 90 metres or longer, the app also calculates the permitted maximum speeds over ground on the tidal Elbe. The calculation is based on the official current data table published by the Federal Waterways and Shipping Administration and the high-water times at the four reference gauges.

Whether you are monitoring a river, planning a trip, visiting the coast or spending time on the water, Pegel.app presents important water-level information in a clear and convenient format.

The information shown is provided for general guidance. Official notices, flood warnings, traffic signs, instructions from vessel traffic services and nautical publications must always be followed for navigation and safety-related decisions.

Version History The tide functions have been expanded:
• For the K13A platform, the Euro platform and Goeree Lighthouse, you can choose between MSL and ALAT.
• German North Sea tide gauges support switching between the gauge zero point (PNP) and nautical chart zero (SKN) at suitable stations.
• Forecast times can be displayed either in the station’s local time or in UTC. 3.4.3 Sep 1 Tide forecasts for Dutch coastal waters now support switching between NAP and ALAT at compatible stations.
The toggle is located right next to “Reference Level.” Daily headings and predicted tide heights change together. Your selection is saved for each station and works even offline.
The conversion is based on official station data from Rijkswaterstaat. Measured water levels and warning thresholds remain unchanged. 3.4.2 Aug 31 - The multi-day tide view now shows the day of the week and the date, for example ‘Today · Wed 19 Aug’ or ‘Fri 21 Aug’.
- New central journey planner for the Tideelbe, including departure point, vehicle type, vessel length, journey distance through the water and optional consideration of speed limits.
- Inputs for vessel length in the journey planner can now be processed more reliably.
- Wind direction is correctly displayed as a compass bearing with a degree value, for example ‘West-north-west (292°)’.
- Changes in wind direction are indicated by appropriate symbols.
- Terminology for wind direction and salinity has been corrected. 3.4.1 Aug 19 - New status icons indicate available water-level forecasts, official fairway depths, and active or upcoming notices.
- The new Navigation Information section brings together available depth information and notices from WSV/ELWIS. 3.4 Jul 27 The Elbe speed limit display has been enhanced:

• Your current river section is automatically determined using the device’s location and clearly highlighted.
• The direction of travel can now be detected automatically.
• Location tracking and travel direction are retained after standby.
• Improved filtering provides a steadier display of the vessel’s speed over ground.
• Additional usability and stability improvements. 3.3.2 Jul 25 Minor stability and display improvements. 3.3.1 Jul 24 What’s new in version 3.3:
- Water-level forecasts for selected gauges
- Forecast values clearly grouped by date
- Astronomical deviation between observed water levels and predicted tides, where available
- Calculation of permitted maximum speeds over ground on the tidal Elbe for vessels 90 metres or longer
- New interface languages: French, Dutch, Norwegian and Spanish
- Enhanced gauge details with a map, tide times and reference water levels
- Improved map view and search
- Various refinements and bug fixes 3.3 Jul 23 Minor technical improvements and visual refinements. 3.2.2 Jul 18 - The tide forecast loads with a history view, so the last tide change remains visible.
- The favorites list can be sorted manually.
- The list/favorites logic has been revised.
- Water level and tide lists have been visually standardized and made more compact.
- The data status indicator has been made less prominent again.
- The iPad split layout has been adjusted to be more compact.
- The iPad map no longer displays the “Select Level” overlay prompt.
- The initial load on the iPad has been fixed so that levels appear in full after the initial installation. 3.2 Jul 17 We've improved the forecast tables in both the Tide and Water Level apps:

- Times are now displayed correctly, even with larger text sizes.
- Tide/level type, time, and water level remain fully visible on all supported devices.
- Weather information adapts more flexibly to the available screen width.
- Improved compatibility with iPhone and iPad accessibility and text size settings. 3.1 Jul 16 New in this version
