    The document discusses a Shipboard Computer System (SCS) that provides real-time data collection, visualization, and event logging capabilities to support marine research. SCS continuously logs critical navigation data and records event-based data from instruments like CTD sensors and plankton nets to provide digital records of scientific operations.

    “Shipboard Computer System (SCS) and Survey Event Logging”

    The benefits of SCS are manifold. The system provides users with real-time data products, event logging
    and management, data collection, data visualization, and quality assurance. It is a valuable tool to
    scientists as they conduct their research, providing them with rich background data sets, the ability to
    make immediate decisions based on visualization of real-time data, and tools to detect
    interrelationships among the data. Whether a scientist is searching for whales on a warm water core
    boundary, towing a CTD across a volcanic vent, or collecting plankton in a bongo tow, SCS provides insitu
    data to make decisions about the progress and quality of the operation.

    “Shipboard Computer System

    Two primary types of data logging are supported by SCS – "continuous" data and "event"
    data. Data that are vital to safe navigation are permanently integrated into the system,
    recorded and processed on a continuous (i.e., real-time) basis. Examples include
    information from the global positioning system (GPS), gyrocompass, water depth indicators,
    and meteorological sensors. In contrast, event data are recorded from instruments used on
    an "as needed" basis; for example, a water quality sampling device, such as a "CTD" that
    measures conductivity and temperature at different depths, or a plankton sampling net
    towed behind the ship. At each step of the event (including start, stop and interim marks),
    snapshots of key sensor data are automatically recorded. Thus, the user has a complete
    digital record of the event.
