Underway Marine Sensor Data from RV Solander Voyage, November 2022

Australian coastal data collected by the Integrated Marine Observing System's Ships of Opportunity facility. The dataset was gathered by sensors aboard the research vessel RV Solander during a specific trip from 09 to 19 November 2022. It is managed and distributed by the Australian Ocean Data Network.

Use Cases

• Modeling coastal oceanographic conditions based on underway sensor data.
• Calibrating satellite-derived sea surface temperature data based on in-situ sensor measurements.
• Analyzing temporal variability in marine parameters based on time-series data collection.
• Studying vessel-based observation methodologies for environmental monitoring.

Strengths

• Data is associated with the authoritative Australian Integrated Marine Observing System (IMOS) project.
• Collection time range is precisely defined as 09 to 19 November 2022.
• Data is served via multiple formats including WMS for geospatial access.

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.
