The collection of this data was funded by a SECOORA grant to assess the presence of federally managed fish species at one MPA, off the central east coast of Florida. The MPA is called Jeff's Reef and is located in the Oculina Bank, a Habitat Areas of Particular Concern (HAPC). The dataset consists of one comma separated files exported from a YSI EXO1 muoltuparmeter sonde and MP4 video files from GoPro Hero9. The sonde was mounted on an ACROBAT towed vehicle from Sea Sciences, on which three GoPro cameras were mounted. Two cameras were facing sideway, on the port and starboard side respectively and one was facing downward.The data was collected on 02 June 2022 and the data file contains the following variables: (1) time (EDT), Conductivity, Depth (m), Dissolved Oxygen, Pressure (psi), Salinity, TDS, Temperature, Latitude, Longitude, and water depth. The latitude and longitude are those of the vehicle underwater towed at a distance of about 200m behind the boat. The time of the video files is ETD and can be matched with the location of the vehicle.
