Abstract
Airborne Laser Fluorosensor or 'ALF' Data technology used in the present study comprises an aircraft-mounted laser, with an emitting wavelength of 266 nanno-metres, which is fired vertically at the sea surface. Any aromatic hydrocarbons present at the sea surface are excited by the laser and fluoresce; this fluorescence is then measured on-board the aircraft via a solid state diode array and presented as a digital spectral output. ALF is an extremely sensitive tool and detects the presence of thin (<1 micron) hydrocarbon films on the sea surface. Hydrocarbon anomalies detected by ALF are called 'fluors'. The vector data comes from 2 sources: AGSO and BHP. The AGSO data: acp8flours.shp both point and line data. acp16flours.shp both point and line data. skuaflours.shp both point and line data. haydenflours.shp both point and line data. browseflours.shp both point and line data. timor_survey.shp just line data timor2_survey.shp just line data. The BHP data (under the legacy_data directory in the CDROM): 1991_timor_sea
