IMOS Ship Sensor Data from RV Cape Ferguson October-November 2019

IMOS Ships of Opportunity data collected by the 'Sensors on Tropical Research Vessels' sub-facility aboard the RV Cape Ferguson during Trip 7241. The dataset contains sensor-based time series observations from the ocean voyage spanning 24 October 2019 to 05 November 2019. It is managed by the Australian Ocean Data Network as part of the national Integrated Marine Observing System.

Use Cases

• Analyze time series sensor data from the RV Cape Ferguson to study oceanographic conditions during the specified voyage.
• Process marine sensor data tagged with Oceanography and Marine Science categories for environmental monitoring.
• Utilize Australia-tagged geospatial sensor records from the IMOS project for regional marine research.

Strengths

• Data originates from the authoritative Australian Integrated Marine Observing System (IMOS) project.
• Provides a defined temporal coverage from 24 October 2019 to 05 November 2019.
• Managed and published by the established Australian Ocean Data Network organization.

Limitations

• Core structural details like row count, column names, and sample data are unavailable, limiting analytical planning.
• Data is provided in non-tabular formats (WMS, PNG, HTML), which may require specialized tools for extraction and analysis.
• The dataset's license is listed as 'notspecified', creating potential ambiguity for reuse and redistribution.
