Source

These data were recorded with great seamanship by Bill Hagey and Randall Davis

Details

Four trials were conducted in which an instrument that was recording speed, magnetic fields, acceleration, depth, and time was towed behind a boat to a series of known locations. During each trial, the boat returned to the starting location after a short trip.
