Access time zone metadata

Each time zone in the TZ Database has associated metadata. This information is retrieved using extension methods on an instance of TzDataTimezone.

Country codes

Retrieve a collection of the ISO 3166 codes for the countries covered by a time zone:

var timezoneCountryCodes = TzDataTimezone.Europe.Andorra.GetIsoCountryCodes();

Location

Time zones defined by the TZ Database have a location for the principal city within the zone — typically the city the zone is named after:

var timezoneLatitude = TzDataTimezone.Australia.Brisbane.GetLatitude();
var timezoneLongitude = TzDataTimezone.Australia.Brisbane.GetLongitude();

Comment

Some time zones carry a comment with additional information:

var timezoneComment = TzDataTimezone.Europe.Berlin.GetComment();
