Raw data acquired by position sensors on board RV MERIAN during expedition MSM121 were processed to receive a validated master track which can be used as reference of further expedition data. During MSM121 the motion reference unit Kongsberg SeaTex AS MRU-5 combined with Kongsberg SeaTex AS Seapath 320 and the GPS receivers Trimble SPS855 and SAAB R4 were used as navigation sensors. Data were downloaded from DAVIS SHIP data base (https://dship.bsh.de) with a resolution of 1 sec. Processing and evaluation of the data is outlined in the data processing report. Processed data are provided as a master track with 1 sec resolution derived from the position sensors' data selected by priority and a generalized track with a reduced set of the most significant positions of the master track. ... : This dataset contains the master track in 10 min resolution, for other resolutions please see "Other version" references. ...
