Underway Marine Sensor Data from RV Solander, July 2013

Ships of Opportunity underway data collected by the Australian Integrated Marine Observing System (IMOS). The data originates from the 'Sensors on Tropical Research Vessels' sub-facility aboard the RV Solander during Trip 5758 from 17 to 26 July 2013. The dataset is hosted by the Australian Ocean Data Network and was last updated in April 2026.

Use Cases

• Modeling oceanographic conditions based on underway sensor measurements.
• Analyzing temporal patterns in marine data from a specific research voyage.
• Calibrating satellite-derived ocean data with in-situ sensor observations.
• Studying regional marine phenomena in the area traversed by the RV Solander.

Strengths

• Data is part of the national-scale Australian Integrated Marine Observing System (IMOS).
• Specific temporal coverage is provided: 17 to 26 July 2013.
• Hosted by the authoritative Australian Ocean Data Network.

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.
• Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
