# Introduction
|
|
|
|
|
|
TSG-QC is a software for interactive analysis and validation of underway SST / SSS (Sea Surface Temperature and Sea Surface Salinity) measurements from a SeaBird Thermosalinograph (TSG). It has been developed under Matlab.
|
|
|
|
|
|
# Purpose
|
|
|
|
|
|
TSG-QC is a tool for analysis and validation of surface temperature and salinity data acquired from a Thermosalinograph (TSG) installed on research or [commercial ships](https://www.legos.omp.eu/sss/).
|
|
|
|
|
|
It allows:
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. Visualization of TSG variables: Temperature, salinity, and ship speed
|
|
|
2. Interactive comparison with climatological values [WOA](https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/products/world-ocean-atlas) and [ISAS](https://www.seanoe.org/data/00412/52367/))
|
|
|
3. Automatic quality control using selected threshold criteria
|
|
|
4. Data validation and correction with external “bucket” measurements (water samples usually collected once a day)
|
|
|
5. Quantitative estimation of sensor drift
|
|
|
|
|
|
The software can deal with different input data formats: ASCII, Labview, "Real-time" Coriolis NetCDF, Seabird (\*.cnv), ...
