Accurate charts of tidal streams are needed in many fields of science and industry. The Proudman Oceanographic Laboratory's numerically modelled hydrodynamic data sets provide a suitable source for the production of such charts. Different methods of producing data in ‘tidal diamond’ format were investigated and the most suitable was selected for implementation over the UK continental shelf.
