RV Solander Underway Ocean Sensor Data from September 2013

September 2013 data from the RV Solander Trip 5867, collected by the Integrated Marine Observing System's Ships of Opportunity facility. The dataset supports oceanographic and environmental monitoring research.

Use Cases

• Analyze time series sensor data for oceanographic patterns during the September 2013 voyage.
• Correlate underway sensor readings with environmental monitoring tags like Oceanography and Marine Science.
• Process geospatial data from the WMS format for mapping the vessel's track and sensor coverage.

Strengths

• Data originates from the authoritative Australian Integrated Marine Observing System (IMOS) project.
• Covers a specific 14-day time period from 09 to 22 September 2013.
• Associated with the Australian Ocean Data Network organization for stewardship.

Limitations

• No column definitions or sample data are available to assess the specific sensor variables.
• The dataset size, row count, and specific file formats beyond WMS are unknown.
• Data is temporally limited to a single two-week voyage in 2013.
