IMOS RV Solander Underway Oceanographic Data October-November 2022

October 20 to November 6, 2022 data collected by the Integrated Marine Observing System's Ships of Opportunity facility aboard the RV Solander. The dataset contains underway sensor measurements from a tropical research vessel trip, managed by the Australian Ocean Data Network. It supports oceanographic and environmental monitoring research.

Use Cases

• Analyze time-series sensor data for oceanographic conditions during the RV Solander's voyage
• Correlate underway measurements with known environmental monitoring parameters like temperature or salinity
• Study marine science observations from a specific research vessel trip in Australian waters

Strengths

• Data originates from the authoritative Australian Integrated Marine Observing System (IMOS) project
• Provides a focused 18-day time series from a dedicated research vessel trip
• Managed and published by the established Australian Ocean Data Network

Limitations

• The specific sensor variables, row count, and data volume are unknown
• Data is available only in non-tabular formats (WMS, PNG, HTML), limiting direct numerical analysis
• Temporal coverage is limited to a single 18-day voyage in late 2022
