IMOS SOOP Underway Data from RV Solander Trip 6147, Jan 2015

IMOS Ships of Opportunity data was collected by the 'Sensors on Tropical Research Vessels' sub-facility aboard the RV Solander during Trip 6147. The data collection period was from 15 January 2015 to 27 January 2015. The dataset is hosted by the Australian Ocean Data Network and was last updated on 18 April 2026.

Use Cases

• Analyze oceanographic conditions based on underway sensor data mentioned in the description
• Study temporal patterns in marine data from a specific research vessel trip
• Integrate sensor observations from the IMOS Ships of Opportunity facility into broader marine models

Strengths

• Data originates from the established Australian Integrated Marine Observing System (IMOS) project
• Specific temporal coverage is defined as 15 to 27 January 2015
• Data is associated with a specific research vessel (RV Solander) and trip number (6147)

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment
• Available file formats (PNG, HTML, WMS) suggest the primary data may be served as visualizations or metadata rather than raw tabular data
