Enhanced Master Station History Report

The Enhanced Master Station History Report (EMSHR) is a compiled list of basic, historical information for every station in the station history database, beginning in the 1700s through the present. The Enhanced MSHR version contains similar data elements and is in a similar format as the Standard/Legacy MSHR (DSI-9767_01), but the Enhanced MSHR includes additional stations that are included in the Global Historical Climatology Network (GHCN)-Daily product. Also, the Enhanced MSHR incorporates additional station networks, including international stations/networks. The Enhanced MSHR contains an expanded number of items to the original MSHR, such as station status, additional IDs, alternate station names, NWS region, NWS Weather Forecast Office (WFO), all elevations, latitude/longitude precision, and UTC offset.
