Square Rocks Humidity Sensor Time Series

From 19 December 2009, this dataset contains humidity measurements collected by weather sensors deployed at the Square Rocks site of the Australian Institute of Marine Science (AIMS) Weather Station. The data likely represents a long-term environmental time series for ocean observation. It is hosted by the Australian Ocean Data Network and has been updated multiple times in 2026.

Use Cases

• Analyzing long-term humidity trends based on the time-series data from a specific coastal site.
• Correlating atmospheric moisture with other oceanographic parameters suggested by the 'Ocean Observation' tag.
• Validating or calibrating environmental models using sensor data from a known monitoring station.

Strengths

• Provides a long-term record starting from a specific date (19 December 2009).
• Sourced from a known scientific institution (AIMS) via the Australian Ocean Data Network.
• Appears on multiple platform entries, indicating sustained availability.

Limitations

• Critical metadata is missing: no column names, row counts, or file sizes are provided.
• The listed file formats (HTML, PNG) are atypical for raw sensor data, suggesting possible access barriers.
• The 'last updated' dates conflict (2026-06-04, 2026-05 05, 2026-04-18), creating ambiguity about the most recent data or metadata change.
