This sensor doesn't work at the moment due to changed by the [Swiss Federal Office for the Environment (Bundesamt für Umwelt - Abt. Hydrologie)](http://www.hydrodaten.admin.ch) to access the data.

The swiss_hydrological_data sensor will show you details (temperature, level, and discharge) of rivers and lakes in Switzerland.

{% linkable_title Setup %}

The station overview contains a list of all available measuring points and will help to determine the ID of station which is needed for the configuration.

{% linkable_title Configuration %}

To enable this sensor, add the following lines to your configuration.yaml file:

# Example configuration.yaml entry
sensor:
  - platform: swiss_hydrological_data
    station: STATION_ID

{% configuration %} station: description: The ID of the measurement point. required: true type: string name: description: Name to use in the frontend. required: false type: string default: {% endconfiguration %}

The hydrological measurings are coming from the Swiss Federal Office for the Environment (Bundesamt für Umwelt - Abt. Hydrologie) and are updated almost in real-time.

{% linkable_title Example %}

This sensor contains additional information which an easily accessed by a template sensor.

{% raw %}

# Example configuration.yaml entry
sensor:
  platform: template
  sensors:

      value_template: '{{ states.sensor.aare.attributes.Discharge }}'
      friendly_name: 'Discharge'
