RV Investigator voyage IN2025_V06 collected 106 sound velocity profile (SVP) casts between October 10 and November 14, 2025. The Australian Ocean Data Network manages this dataset, which is stored in ASCII format files at CSIRO. Additional processing details are contained in a separate GSM data acquisition report.
Use Cases
- Calibrate underwater acoustic models based on sound velocity profile data.
- Analyze oceanographic conditions along the voyage track based on the 106 SVP casts.
- Study temporal changes in water column properties during the October-November 2025 voyage period.
Strengths
- 106 individual SVP casts provide multiple data points for the voyage.
- Data collection is associated with a specific, documented research voyage (IN2025_V06) with known departure and arrival dates.
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.
