Oceanographic data collected during the "Exploration of the Deep Ocean with Teams of Long-Endurance Ocean Robots" expedition in the North Pacific Ocean from 2022-07-29 to 2022-08-09 (NCEI Accession 0305838)

This dataset contains observational data from a profiling underwater glider. The project aimed to demonstrate long endurance autonomous exploration using multi-robot teams. The project culminated in a 10-day long field demonstration on the Cascadia Margin (Carbonate Ridge) consisting of a Wave Glider tending and providing navigational aiding to a Seaglider. The demonstration included repeated profiles over seafloor targets as determined by the remote operator-controlled position of the Wave Glider. Vessels were used for launch and recovery of the vehicles only and did not remain on station during the demonstration. The system represents a proof-of-concept for ship-less long-range exploration.

本数据集包含剖面式水下滑翔机（profiling underwater glider）的观测数据。本项目旨在验证多机器人编队开展长续航自主探测的可行性。项目最终在卡斯卡迪亚陆缘（Cascadia Margin）的碳酸盐海脊（Carbonate Ridge）区域完成了为期10天的野外演示：由一台波浪滑翔机（Wave Glider）为一台海洋滑翔机（Seaglider）提供值守与导航辅助。本次演示包含针对海底目标的重复剖面观测，观测点位由远程操作人员通过控制波浪滑翔机的位置确定。本次演示仅在载具布放与回收阶段使用船只，演示全程无需船只留守值守。该系统为无母船远程探测技术提供了概念验证方案。
