Environmental and AIS data collected during the EUMarineRobots Trans-National Access activities experiments using the NATO STO-CMRE Littoral Ocean Observatory Network testbed

Environmental and AIS data collected during the H2020 project EUMarineRobots Trans-National Access activities experiments using the NATO STO-CMRE Littoral Ocean Observatory Network (LOON) testbed. Environmental data consists of temperature measured across the water column; sound velocity measured close to the surface and close to the sea bottom; meteorological data at the surface (i.e., pressure, temperature, wind speed and direction, humidity and rain). The environmental dataset is complemented with Automatic Identification System (AIS) data for the ships transiting close to  the LOON area (Gulf of La Spezia, Italy)

Temperature measured across the water column in the LOON area (Gulf of La Spezia, Italy). The dataset includes measurements for:
i) Nov 12, 19-20, 23-24 - 2020
ii) Dec 1-4, 14-20 - 2020
iii) Jan 12-13, 15, 18-24, 27-28 - 2021

Meteorological data at the surface (i.e., pressure, temperature, wind speed and direction, humidity and rain) in the LOON area (Gulf of La Spezia, Italy). The dataset includes measurements for:
i) Nov 12, 19-20, 23-24 - 2020
ii) Dec 1-4, 14-20 - 2020
iii) Jan 12-13, 15, 18-24, 27-28 - 2021

Sound velocity measured close to the surface (SVP1) and close to the sea bottom (SVP2) in the LOON area (Gulf of La Spezia, Italy). The dataset includes measurements for:
i) Nov 12, 19-20, 23-24 - 2020
ii) Dec 1-4, 14-20 - 2020
iii) Jan 12-13, 15, 18-24, 27-28 - 2021

SVP2 data  missing for  Dec 14-20 (2020) and Jan 24, 27-28 (2021).

Automatic Identification System (AIS) data for the ships transiting close to  the LOON area (Gulf of La Spezia, Italy). The dataset includes AIS data for:
i) Nov 12, 19-20, 23-24 - 2020
ii) Dec 1-4, 14-20 - 2020
iii) Jan 12-13, 15, 18-24, 27-28 - 2021
