MIDAS: Marine Information and Data Acquisition System: Underway & Cruise data [Marien Informatie en Data Acquisitie Systeem: Underway & Cruise data] Citable as data publication Flanders Marine Institute (VLIZ); (2017): Marine Information and Data Acquisition System: Underway & Cruise data. https://doi.org/10.14284/539 Contact: Availability: Unrestricted The data are freely available to anybody and may be used for any purpose. Usage acknowledgement may be required Description MIDAS stands for Marine Information and Data Acquisition System. This suite of programs was developed at Flanders Marine Institute (VLIZ) to plan the cruises of the RV Zeeleeuw, to register the research activities during these cruises and to capture navigational, metereological and oceanographic parameters while underway. more VLIZ supports scientists and administrations by collecting, checking, integrating and re-distributing operational data. Data measurements can take place with VLIZ equipment or equipment from third parties. In the easiest case, instruments are used with the software that has been supplied by the deliverer. In other cases, applications will be developed to automate the whole. Besides this, databases and web applications will be developed to compile and to re-distribute the data. If relevant, the data will also be delivered to international organisations.
