Fin whale tracks Elephant Island

This data set comprises the the location data obtained via SPLASH LIMPET tags from four fin whales equipped with satellite transmitters at Elephant Island Antarctica in April / March 2021. Provided are the tag identifier (Ptt), transmitter model (instrument), the data and time of each recorded location, the satellite system used for transmission (type), a quality rating of the transmission (quality) as B, A, 0, 1, 2 or 3 in increasing order of position accuracy, LAtitude and Longitude of the position. The dataset shows the movement of 4 fin whales at the tagging site at Elephant Island, Antarctica, and three of the whales starting their northward migration at the end of the feeding season around mid April.

本数据集包含2021年3/4月于南极象岛（Elephant Island）为4头安装卫星追踪器的长须鲸，通过SPLASH LIMPET标签获取的位置数据。数据集包含的字段如下：标签标识符（Ptt）、发射器型号（instrument）、每条记录位置的日期与时间、用于数据传输的卫星系统类型（type）、传输质量评级（quality，按位置精度从低到高依次为B、A、0、1、2、3），以及对应位置的纬度（Latitude）与经度（Longitude）。本数据集展现了4头长须鲸在南极象岛标记位点的活动轨迹，其中3头长须鲸于摄食季末期（约4月中旬）开启向北洄游进程。
