Underway Ocean Sensor Data from RV Solander Trip 7173

Sensor data was collected by the Australian Integrated Marine Observing System's 'Sensors on Tropical Research Vessels' sub-facility aboard the RV Solander during Trip 7173 from August 23 to 27, 2019. This dataset supports oceanographic and marine science research through the Ships of Opportunity program.

Use Cases

• Analyze time series sensor data for oceanographic feature detection during the August 2019 voyage.
• Integrate PNG visualizations with other marine datasets for spatial-temporal analysis of the trip's route.
• Use WMS service layers to map and visualize sensor readings from the RV Solander's underway systems.

Strengths

• Data originates from the authoritative Australian Integrated Marine Observing System (IMOS) project.
• Provides a focused 5-day temporal coverage from August 23 to 27, 2019.
• Offers data in multiple formats including WMS, PNG, and HTML for different access needs.

Limitations

• The specific sensor variables, column structure, and total data volume (rows, size) are unknown.
• Data is limited to a single, short-duration research voyage, restricting broader temporal analysis.
• The license is unspecified, which may create uncertainty for downstream use and redistribution.
