Abstract:
Raw data acquired by position sensors on board RV Polarstern during expedition PS154/1 was processed to receive a validated master track which can be used as reference of further expedition data. During PS154/1 two Trimble Marine R750 GPS receivers and the iXBlue HYDRINS hydrographic survey inertial navigation system were used as navigation sensors. Data were downloaded from DAVIS SHIP data base (https://dship.o2a-data.de/) with a resolution of 1 sec. 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.
