Data contains recorded navigation track (geographical coordinates, time) and machine calculated course and speed of the Arctic and Antarctic Research Institute (AARI) research vessel Akademik Fedorov with 1 minute interval in CSV and shapefile formats for 21 September - 25 October 2019 (pre-MOSAiC phase). Coordinates are based on GPS positions of the vessels recorded continuously on the bridge by the DKart Navigator ECDIS. Navigation area - through the northern parts of Barents Sea, Kara Sea towards the initial area of the MOSAiC distributed network (DN) and Polarstern icebreaker central floe in the Arctic Basin (app 85N, 130E) and back. There is a couple of insignificant gaps in the row. Data are in compressed form as a single archive.
