Full description
This record describes magnetometer data collected on RV Investigator voyage IN2022_V08, titled "Biodiversity Assessment of Australia’s Indian Ocean Territories", which departed Darwin on September 30 and returned to Fremantle on November 3, 2022. This was a continuation of voyage IN2021_v04.The SeaSPY2 magnetometer uses an omnidirectional Overhauser sensor that requires no realignment or recalibration and has no heading error. The instrument has an absolute accuracy of 0.1 nT, sensor sensitivity of 0.01 nT and resolution of 0.001 nT.
Data are stored in .CSV and .MMS data files at CSIRO. 92 MB of raw data was acquired in this dataset.
No processing has been conducted on this data.
The magnetometer was towed ~300 m astern of the ship and a layback value of 361 was applied to the magnetometer data. This was the total distance behind the ship's positioning reference point.
Additional information regarding this dataset is contained in the GSM data acquisition and processing report.
