Drifting and moored buoy data observed during 2015 and assembled by the Global Data Assembly Center for Drifting Buoy Data (formerly Responsible National Oceanographic Data Center (RNODC)), Canada (NCEI Accession 0156004)

Buoy data is available in real time to platform operators via telecommunications providers and distributed on the Global Telecommunications System (GTS) of the World Meteorological Organization in real-time. As a Global Data Assembly Center for Drifting Buoy Data, DFO OSB MEDS (pka ISDM, OSD, OSB) decodes data transmitted on the GTS in buoy code form. This includes moored buoy data as well. This is OSB MEDS's annual submission of such data to the U.S. NCEI. This dataset should not be considered as complete since several buoys failed to report BUOY (TAC FM-18) messages in 2015. Another dataset will be submitted when the BUFR data from 2015 is recovered, selected and formatted.浮标数据可通过电信运营商向平台运营方提供实时访问权限，并经世界气象组织（World Meteorological Organization）的全球电信系统（Global Telecommunications System, GTS）进行实时分发。 作为漂流浮标数据的全球数据汇编中心，DFO OSB MEDS（又名ISDM、OSD、OSB）可对全球电信系统中以浮标编码格式传输的数据进行解码，其中也包含锚泊浮标数据。 本数据集为OSB MEDS向美国国家环境信息中心（National Centers for Environmental Information, NCEI）提交的年度浮标数据。由于2015年有多艘浮标未能上报BUOY（TAC FM-18）报文，因此本数据集并非完整数据集。待2015年的BUFR数据完成恢复、筛选与格式化后，将提交另一版数据集。
