Dive Data from Expedition Information System (EIS) for Islands in the Stream 2002 - Pharmaceutical Discovery, Vision, and Bioluminescence - Office of Ocean Exploration

The Expeditions Information System (EIS) contains information recorded by the NOAA Office of Ocean Exploration's data manager during the 2002 "Islands in the Stream - Pharmaceutical Discovery, Vision, and Bioluminescence" expedition, August 15 through 31, 2002. Information contained in the EIS includes submersible, remotely operated vehicle, autonomous underwater vehicle, and SCUBA operational information and a summary of scientific observations during each dive; ship activity information (positions, transits, and visitor shuttles); sample information; water column and bottom conditions; weather observations; sea state observations; education and outreach activity information; media event information; scientific instrumentation information; transect information; dive site profiles; and a record of all data collected by principal investigators. The data presented here are the tables from the original EIS which is a FileMaker Pro database.

Purpose	The EIS now captures all relevant information about activities and data collected and provides a comprehensive record of the expedition. The EIS supports semi-automated generation of daily situation reports, dive reports, and post-cruise summaries. This information from the EIS was compiled in Microsoft Excel to support a demonstration of the prototype NOAA Office of Ocean Exploration Digital Atlas. It was formatted for incorporation into a Geographic Information System database.
