About F3 wave buoy

F3 (WMO 62170) is an offshore North Sea observation buoy (51.2400°N, 2.0000°E). It is positioned to sample wave and weather conditions over a wide open-water fetch that influences coastal sea state and offshore operations. It typically measures waves (height/period/direction) and marine meteorology.
