The data files contain SST underway observations from an SBE 48 hull-contact temperature sensor collected on trips of a ferry participating in the Australian Volunteer Observing Fleet (MV Spirit of Tasmania II - VNSZ) between Melbourne (Victoria) and Devonport (Tasmania). The trips take either once per day or once per night. The data are instantaneous hourly measurements. The data have been quality controlled by the Bureau of Meteorology.

Enhancement of Measurements on Ships of Opportunity (SOOP)-Sea Surface Temperature (SST) aims to supply near real-time SST data (within 24 hours) from SOOPs and research vessels in the Australian region.
