Live data

Currently no mission is running. Data shown are from a simulator named DARWIN.

On this page live data is displayed. On the map, the gliders and their tracks are shown. The black balloons represent the gliders' current waypoints. Click on the balloon for more info. The tracks are colour coded:

  • ---- Ammonite
  • ---- Bellamite
  • ---- Coprolite
  • ---- Darwin
  • ---- Dynamite
The last known position of the glider is indicated by:
  • while it is still flying;
  • while it is taken out of service/rescued or, heaven forbids, sunk.

Below the map, you will find the links to the latest available measurement data of the gliders.

Note that all live data can also be accessed in a later stadium from the archive, unless the data displayed here are from simulator gliders.

Estimated surfacing times (UTC)

The estimated surfacing times of the gliders shown in the map above are listed below. The estimate is based on the previous subsurface time. It can happen that a glider can't connect to the dockserver and the subsurface time as determined from sequential glider surfacings, is too long. Also the previous subsurface time may be a wrong estimate for the current subsurface time if new mission parameters have been uploaded and activated. In short, estimated surfacing times are really an estimate...
