DShip is the data acquisition and management system for the scientific sensor system. Device operations are logged in the electronic station book by the ship's command. Navigational parameters like position, water depth, speed etc. are transferred automatically for each log entry. The station book data is accessible on board at all times. Online display or output of selected measurement data on DShip computers in (almost) real time is possible. The DShip system is able to output the data of selected sensors for further use via NMEA Client through the computer network (see below for further details).
After the cruise the integrated data storage provides a web-based extraction of selected data (on board and onshore).
