SMART Cable Sensors: Data Availability and Public Access
Data from the first universal SMART Cable sensor system is being made publicly available through multiple portals .
Data Distribution:
US National Science Foundation's National Geophysical Facility
Ocean Networks Canada's open-access Oceans 3.0 data management system
Temperature and pressure data available via both portals
All data will be publicly accessible once commissioning is complete
Joint Funding:
Development and deployment was made possible through funding from:
US National Science Foundation (initial funding)
Schmidt Marine Technology Partners (continued financial support)
"This system demonstrates that we can instrument these critical communication pathways with sophisticated sensors without compromising their primary mission," said Dr. Erika Montague, Chief Technologist at Schmidt Marine Technology Partners .
