| Summary: | Progress Code: completed Maintenance and Update Frequency: notPlanned Statement: Data source: original field data Position data - ashtech or seapath - inital voyage of seapath - instrument overheated depth repicked using echoview. The .tsr files were re-made to interpolate over spike in temperature data. Wind speed and direction recalculated from uncorrected wind speed and heading, ship heading, speed over ground and course overground. Credit Underway data processing by Bernadette Heaney This dataset contains the Underway (UWY) data collected on Southern Surveyor voyage SS 03/2004. The voyage took place in waters off South Western Australia, the Great Australian Bight, the Southern Ocean and Tasmania South Coast from the 9th February to 9th March 2004. This dataset has been processed and is archived within the CSIRO Marine and Atmospheric Research Data Centre in Hobart. Additional information regarding this dataset is contained in the voyage plan and voyage summary. The standard Underway (=continuously recorded) dataset from a research voyage includes Navigation (NAV), Sounder (PDR), Thermosalinograph (TSG) and Meteorological (MET) data. NAV data includes GPS (Global Positioning System) measurements of latitude, longitude, ship's direction and speed. MET data may include atmospheric temperature, humidity and pressure, wind speed and direction, and incident radiation intensity. The data are available at 10 second intervals in the NetCDF file, or at five minute intervals in the standard ASCII file.
