To do this, most operating vessels use e-logbook software that allows an observer to enter information, then the software can transmit a real-time report as well as save the same report in a different format to the ship's hard drive for later access, i.e. delayed mode observation (DM). Once in port, all DM reports stored on the hard drive are retrieved and sent to the National Climatic Data Center for archiving and processing. The e-logbook software used in this dataset is the TurboWin+ program and structures data in the IMMT-5 format. purpose: The data provides raw atmospheric and marine observations from volunteer ships throughout the world in a consistent internationally recognized format. credit: status: (MD_ProgressCode) onGoing pointOfContact: (CI_ResponsibleParty) organisationName: NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information positionName: Customer Engagement Branch contactInfo: (CI_Contact) phone: (CI_Telephone) voice: 1-828-271-4800 facsimile: 1-828-271-4876 address: (CI_Address) deliveryPoint: 151 Patton Avenue deliveryPoint: Veach-Baley Federal Building, Room 468 city: Asheville administrativeArea: NC postalCode: 28801-5001 country: USA electronicMailAddress: ncei.orders@noaa.gov onlineResource: (CI_OnlineResource) linkage: https://www.ncei.noaa.gov protocol: HTTPS applicationProfile: Web Browser name: NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI) description: NCEI home page with information, data access and contact information. function: (CI_OnLineFunctionCode) information hoursOfService: 8:00 - 6:00 Eastern role: (CI_RoleCode) pointOfContact pointOfContact: (CI_ResponsibleParty) individualName: Eric Freeman organisationName: DOC/NOAA/NESDIS/NCEI > National Centers for Environmental Information, NESDIS, NOAA, U.S. Department of Commerce positionName: Marine Observation Analyst contactInfo: (CI_Contact) phone: (CI_Telephone) voice: 828-271-4463 facsimile: address: (CI_Address) deliveryPoint: city: administrativeArea: postalCode: country: electronicMailAddress: eric.freeman@noaa.gov contactInstructions: role: (CI_RoleCode) pointOfContact resourceMaintenance: (MD_MaintenanceInformation) maintenanceAndUpdateFrequency: (MD_MaintenanceFrequencyCode) quarterly descriptiveKeywords: (MD_Keywords) keyword: Earth Science > Atmosphere > Clouds > Cloud Properties keyword: Earth Science > Atmosphere > Clouds > Cloud Types keyword: Earth Science > Atmosphere > Clouds > Tropospheric/High-Level Clouds (observed/Analyzed) keyword: Earth Science > Atmosphere > Clouds > Tropospheric/Low Level Clouds (observed/Analyzed) keyword: Earth Science > Atmosphere > Clouds > Tropospheric/Mid-Level Clouds (observed/Analyzed) keyword: Earth Science > Atmosphere > Air Quality > Visibility keyword: Earth Science > Atmosphere > Atmospheric Temperature > Surface Temperature > Air Temperature keyword: Earth Science > Atmosphere > Atmospheric Temperature > Dew Point Temperature keyword: Earth Science > Atmosphere > Atmospheric Temperature > Surface Temperature keyword: Earth Science > Atmosphere > Atmospheric Pressure > Atmospheric Pressure Measurements keyword: Earth Science > Atmosphere > Atmospheric Pressure > Pressure Tendency keyword: Earth Science > Atmosphere > Atmospheric Pressure > Sea Level Pressure keyword: Earth Science > Atmosphere > Atmospheric Pressure > Surface Pressure keyword: Earth Science > Oceans > Ocean Waves > Swells keyword: Earth Science > Oceans > Ocean Waves > Wave Height keyword: Earth Science > Oceans > Ocean Waves > Wave Period keyword: Earth Science > Oceans > Ocean Waves > Wave Speed/Direction keyword: Earth Science > Oceans > Ocean Waves > Wind Waves keyword: Earth Science > Oceans > Ocean Temperature > Sea Surface Temperature keyword: Earth Science > Oceans > Ocean Temperature > Water Temperature keyword: Earth Science > Oceans > Sea Ice > Ice Edges keyword: Earth Science > Atmosphere > Atmospheric Water Vapor > Water Vapor Indicators > Dew Point Temperature keyword: Earth Science > Atmosphere > Atmospheric Water Vapor > Water Vapor Indicators > Humidity type: (MD_KeywordTypeCode) theme thesaurusName: (CI_Citation) title: Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Science Keywords date: (CI_Date) date: 2018 dateType: (CI_DateTypeCode) revision edition: Version 8.6 citedResponsibleParty: (CI_ResponsibleParty) organisationName: Global Change Data Center, Science and Exploration Directorate, Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC) National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) contactInfo: (CI_Contact) onlineResource: (CI_OnlineResource) linkage: https://earthdata.nasa.gov/about/gcmd/global-change-master-directory-gcmd-keywords protocol: HTTPS applicationProfile: Web Browser name: Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Keywords description: The information provided on this page seeks to define how the GCMD Keywords are structured, used and accessed.
