The archive for the IN2026_V04 EOV raw data is curated by the CSIRO National Collections and Marine Infrastructure (NCMI) Information and Data Centre (IDC) in Hobart, with a permanent archive at the CSIRO Data Access Portal ( https://data.csiro.au/), providing access to voyage participants and processors of the data collected on the voyage. All voyage documentation is available electronically to MNF support via the local network. Applications to access voyage documentation by non-CSIRO participants can be made via HF-Data-Requests@csiro.au All processed data from this voyage are made publicly available through the MNF Data Trawler (in the related links)
