Underway Marine Sensor Data from RV Solander Voyage, December 2021

IMOS Ships of Opportunity data collected by the 'Sensors on Tropical Research Vessels' sub-facility aboard the RV Solander from 14 to 16 December 2021. The Australian Ocean Data Network hosts this dataset, which was last updated on 28 April 2026. Data formats include WMS, PNG, and HTML.

Use Cases

• Analyzing short-term oceanographic conditions based on underway sensor measurements.
• Visualizing marine data spatially based on the available WMS and PNG formats.
• Integrating sensor readings from research vessels into larger environmental monitoring models.

Strengths

• Data originates from the authoritative Australian Integrated Marine Observing System (IMOS) project.
• Specific temporal coverage is provided for the voyage from 14 to 16 December 2021.
• Metadata includes a precise last updated timestamp of 2026-04-28 13:53:11.128833.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count and dataset size are unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Data may reflect geographic and temporal bias inherent to a single vessel's short voyage.
