Quality-checked, one-second cruise track of the Antarctic Circumnavigation Expedition (ACE) undertaken during the austral summer of 2016/2017.

<p><strong>Dataset abstract</strong></p> <p>The Antarctic Circumnavigation Expedition (ACE), undertaken in the austral summer of 2016/2017 recorded the cruise track using two independent geo-location instruments: one using GLobal NAvigation Satellite Systems (GLONASS; hereafter referred to as GLONASS) and another primarily using the Global Positioning System (GPS; hereafter referred to as the Trimble GPS). Daily log files were recorded in real-time from both instruments during the expedition and added to MySQL database tables. Following the expedition, quality-checking work has been undertaken to provide a one-second resolution set of positions for the cruise track, which is presented here.</p> <p><strong>Dataset contents</strong></p> <ul> <li>ace_cruise_track_1sec_YYYY-MM.csv, data file, comma-separated values</li> <li>ace_cruise_track_trimble_example_deviation_2016-12-24.png, metadata, portable network graphics</li> <li>README.txt, metadata, text file</li> <li>data_file_header.txt, metadata, text file</li> </ul> <p><strong>Dataset license</strong></p> <p>This quality-checked cruise track dataset from ACE is made available under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License (CC BY 4.0) whose full text can be found at https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/</p>
