Data may include:

  • ADCP data collected using UHDAS
  • CTD using Seabird Software
  • Multibeam using Kongsberg SIS software
  • Underway positioning, surface seawater and meteorlogical data using dsLog
  • XBT
  • Knudsen 3.5KHz and/or 12KHz
  • Magnetometer
  • Gravimeter

GPS data  are available via RS232 or UDP.

GYRO data are available via RS232 or UDP.

Other underway data are also available via RS232 or UDP- contact the R/V Science Coordinator if you require a full description of data and/or UDP ports.

The R2R Eventlog is available for science use.

At the end of the cruise the Chief Scientist will get one USB external drive with the official cruise data. A copy will also be sent back to WHOI's Data Library and  to R2R (http://rvdata.us) . During the precruise planning stage the Chief Scientist can ask for a 2 year embargo on the data.

Alvin video and data is package separately from the above ship data. (See: NDSF Data Policy)
