<h3>Environmental and Navigational Data from the Ship's Monitoring Systems,<br /> Reported along the Ship's Track</h3> <p>This along track (JGOFS) data set was obtained primarily by applying calibrations to raw data and decimating to whole minute intervals. Several fields are derived measurements from more than an single raw input. For example, Course Made Good (cmg) and Speed Over Ground (sog) are calculated from gyro and GPS inputs.</p> <p>Cruises often used \"9.99\" or \"9999\" to indicate bad data. Those numbers were changed to 'nd'. Not all bad data were flagged in this way however. Users of these data are encouraged to read the Data Report (found at the Directory Level of this system under \"Inventory\" then under \"project/cruise id\", and then under \"data report\") in order to be aware of bad data points that are not indicated by \"9\"s and therefore remain in the dataset.</p> <p><strong>Questions regarding this data set should be directed to:</strong><br /> Bob Groman<br /> GLOBEC Data Management Office<br /> Woods Hole Oceanographic Inst.<br /> Woods Hole, MA 02543<br /> <br /> Phone: [phone]<br /> E-mail: <a href=\"mailto:[e-mail]\">[e-mail]</a><br /> <br /> <em>Last updated March 15, 2006</em></p>
