Marine Sensor Data from RV Solander Voyage, March 2024

IMOS Ships of Opportunity data collected aboard the RV Solander during Trip 8235 from 17 March 2024 to 31 March 2024. The dataset is provided by the Australian Ocean Data Network and was last updated on 22 March 2026. It originates from the Sensors on Tropical Research Vessels sub-facility.

Use Cases

• Modeling oceanographic time-series based on underway sensor data mentioned in the description
• Analyzing environmental conditions in tropical waters based on the vessel's operational region
• Calibrating remote sensing data with in-situ marine observations based on the sensor platform
• Studying temporal variability in marine parameters during a specific voyage period

Strengths

• Data is sourced from a dedicated national marine observing system (IMOS)
• Covers a specific two-week voyage period from 17 to 31 March 2024
• Last metadata update was recorded on 22 March 2026

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment
• Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download
