About this gauge
Denain is a gauge on the Selle ou Escaut in Nord, France.
It lies at 50.3172° N, 3.3888° E.
Its readings come from France's national network of river gauges (Vigicrues and its partners), through Hub'Eau.
The gauge reads the height of the water above a fixed zero, not the depth of the river. Its zero lies at 27.41 m above NGF-IGN69 (the French sea-level datum).
Hub'Eau's daily highs for this gauge go back to 28 July 1976.
Hub'Eau's newest readings are mostly raw data that the gauge's operator checks and validates later.
The newest reading is provisional: the source may still correct it.
