PolarFront 2021 sailbuoy Iskant EK80 During the arctic spring of 2021, the autonomous sailbuoy Iskant was on a 2-month long-endurance field campaign in the Barents Sea, for the PolarFront research project. Equipped with a broadband echosounder (SIMRAD EK80 WBT Mini), the sailbuoy captured 5600 acoustic segments, each holding 5 minutes of data (Dunn, 2022). The EK80 data is published in a collection of 12 datasets with a combined size of ~500GB. This dataset contains vehicle GPS positions/data logs, EK80 calibration file, a machine-readable list of the datasets, as well as documentation for the entire collection.
