Buoy dataset

Description

This document details a dataset derived from near-surface current velocity measurements along trajectories in the Indian Ocean, compiled as part of the SusTunTech project. The dataset spans October 2010 to December 2020, with current velocities averaged monthly and mapped onto a 4.5º x 4.5º grid. The velocity data has been validated using scientific drifters (velocity measurements at a depth of -15 m), ensuring the currents accurately represent that depth.
