Title:
TowCam navigation data (ASCII format) at Incipient Rift, Galapagos Triple Junction (VANC01MV, 2002)
Abstract:
These TowCam navigation files were generated during 2002 R/V Melville cruise VANC01MV along a minor rift originating at the East Pacific Rise (EPR) at 2°40'N continuing southeastward for ~65 km. Photographs were assigned the position of the ship, assuming minimal layback of the camera sled. The files are in ASCII text format with the following fields: yyyy-mm-dd, hr:min:sec, lat_deg, lat_min, lat_sec, lon_deg, lon_min, lon_sec. There is one navigation file per TowCam deployment. The files were generated as part of a project called Geochemical and Geological Investigations of the Incipient Rift at 2° 40'N, East of the East Pacific Rise. Funding was provided by NSF awards OCE00-96360 and OCE00-99154.
