IMOS SOOP Underway Sensor Data from RV Cape Ferguson, June 2025

From 08 June 2025 to 24 June 2025, the Australian Integrated Marine Observing System (IMOS) collected underway data via its 'Sensors on Tropical Research Vessels' sub-facility. The data was gathered aboard the research vessel RV Cape Ferguson during Trip 8538 and is hosted by the Australian Ocean Data Network.

Use Cases

• Modeling oceanographic conditions based on underway sensor measurements.
• Analyzing temporal patterns in marine data from a specific research voyage.
• Validating satellite or model data against in-situ observations from a tropical research vessel.

Strengths

• Data is part of the national-scale Integrated Marine Observing System (IMOS) project.
• Provides a specific temporal coverage from 08 June 2025 to 24 June 2025.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Data may reflect geographic/temporal/source bias inherent to data_gov_au.
