Underway Ocean Sensor Data from RV Solander May 2022 Voyage

Ships of Opportunity data was collected by the Sensors on Tropical Research Vessels sub-facility aboard the RV Solander during a trip from 26 to 28 May 2022. The dataset is part of the Australian Integrated Marine Observing System (IMOS) project and is managed by the Australian Ocean Data Network.

Use Cases

• Analyze time series of oceanographic sensor data for environmental monitoring during the May 2022 voyage.
• Process underway data from the RV Solander to study marine conditions off Australia.
• Integrate this sensor data with other IMOS datasets for broader oceanographic research.

Strengths

• Data originates from the authoritative Australian Integrated Marine Observing System (IMOS) project.
• Provides a specific temporal snapshot from a 3-day research voyage in May 2022.
• Managed and distributed by the established Australian Ocean Data Network.

Limitations

• The dataset's size, row count, and specific column structure are unknown.
• Available file formats (WMS, PNG, HTML) are primarily for visualization, not raw data analysis.
• The license is unspecified, which may restrict commercial or derivative use.
