All scientific data collected by the Australian Antarctic program (AAp) are eventually described in the Catalogue of Australian Antarctic and Subantarctic Metadata (CAASM). CAASM can be used to search through AAp data descriptions, and it also provides links to access publicly available datasets, which can either be immediately downloaded or obtained from the Australian Antarctic Data Centre (AADC).
Krill data collected from the CEAMARC-CASO voyage of the Aurora Australis during the 2007-2008 summer season. The data consist of a large number of images, plus documents detailing analysis methods and file descriptions.
These are raw data that have not been processed in any way. Quality may vary.

The original files was reformatted to fit OBIS/GBFI/IPT Biodiversity.AQ tracking standards, and a new datasheet "CEAMARC_krill2007_08.csv" was created. The new dataset contains datasetID, occurrenceID, recordNumber, footprintWKT, eventDate, eventRemarks, continent, countryCode, maximumDepthInMeters, occurrenceStatus, basisOfRecord, samplingProtocol. The lowest taxonomical rank of the species identified that could be determined is provided, after matched in WoRMS (World Register of Marine Species).
