IMOS Marine Sensor Data from RV Cape Ferguson October 2017

October 29 to November 04, 2017 data collected by the Integrated Marine Observing System's Ships of Opportunity facility. The dataset contains sensor measurements from the RV Cape Ferguson during Trip 6783, managed by the Australian Ocean Data Network.

Use Cases

• Analyze time-series sensor data for oceanographic patterns during the specified voyage.
• Correlate environmental monitoring data with known geographic routes of tropical research vessels.
• Validate sensor readings from the 'Sensors on Tropical Research Vessels' sub-facility against other marine datasets.

Strengths

• Data originates from the authoritative Australian Integrated Marine Observing System (IMOS) project.
• Provides a focused one-week time series from a specific research vessel trip.
• Managed and distributed by the established Australian Ocean Data Network.

Limitations

• Unknown data volume, row count, and specific column structure.
• Limited temporal coverage to a single 7-day voyage.
• Primary data formats (WMS, PNG, HTML) are not standard for quantitative tabular analysis.
