During AL645 data from the Seapath 330 system, the Furuno GP-170 receiver and the SAAB R6 system were used to calculate the mastertrack. Data were downloaded from DAVIS SHIP data base (https://dship.o2a-data.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.</description><description descriptionType="TechnicalInfo">This dataset contains the master track in 10 min resolution, for other resolutions please see "Other version" references.</description></descriptions><geoLocations><geoLocation><geoLocationBox><westBoundLongitude>10.020694</westBoundLongitude><eastBoundLongitude>11.839036</eastBoundLongitude><southBoundLatitude>54.126444</southBoundLatitude><northBoundLatitude>55.018802</northBoundLatitude></geoLocationBox></geoLocation></geoLocations></resource>
