Description
Summary:During cruise 79 of R/V Akademik Mstislav Keldysh in the Atlantic Antarctic, information is supplied using optical and radar high-, mid-, and low-resolution satellite data, in combination with geoinformation technologies. During field studies from December 2019 to February 2020, preliminarily processed information obtained by a multisatellite Earth remote sensing (ERS) system on sea surface temperature, sea ice concentration, icebergs, altimetry, and the concentration of near-surface layer matter (chlorophyll, particulate organic carbon, inorganic suspended particulate matter, and total suspended matter) is transmitted to the vessel. A description is given of the information infrastructure that provides the research vessel with routine satellite data that is automatically integrated into the user’s geoinformation environment as unified spatiotemporal distributions of important water environment parameters. Aspects of using satellite information when planning a ship’s route and making measurements are described.
