The standarized mass data storage procedure is visualized in the following diagram:
Attention:
After the cruise, the operator transfers the measurement data along with required meta data to AWI. After consultation with the data scientist and AWI Logistics the data (including meta data) can be made available on PANGAEA.
Overview of the scientific devices and systems which produce mass data with directory structure and data volume information:
| Page | root directory | directory name | file name | Data volume (MB per day) ca | Number of files per day ca |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| CTD Probe with Carousel Water Sampler | \\xdc\scientists\data\CTD\ | CruiseNo e.g. HE507 with subdirectories | several files in the following subdirectories: btl conf1 dsp final mat odv work | 50 | 10 |
| Fishing Echo Sounder (Simrad EK 60 / EK 80) | \\H:\scientists\data\fishsounder\ | CruiseNo e.g. HE507 | CruiseNo-Dyyyymmdd-Thhmmss.raw with: yyyy = year, mm = month, dd = day, hh = hour, mm = minute, ss = second e.g. HE507-D20090113-T144735.raw | 3500 | 100 |
| Hyperspectral UV-VIS Radiance Sensor (RAMSES) | |||||
| Multibeam Echo Sounder (EM712) | E:\sisdata\raw\ or \\xdc\home\data\mbes\ | CruiseNo e.g. HE590 | nnnn_YYYYMMDD_hhmmss_Suffix.all | 2800 | 50 |
| Scanmar Fishnet Echo Sounders | operators choice\ | operators choice | suggested name for NMEA data: Cruise No.-YYYY-MM-DD.txt | ||
| Sediment Echo Sounder (Innomar SES) | C:\SES_Applications\Data\ or xdc\home\scientists\HE***\sbp\ | CruiseNo e.g. HE507 | FilePrefix_YYYYMMMDDhhmmss.ses3 | 13000 | 48 |
