VAPS : preliminary system data evaluations : Engineering Services Section : ES-513 / by P.F. Hamblin, W.H. Gibson, L.R. Muir.: En36-522/114-1977E-PDF
"This report is an engineering and scientific evaluation of an instrumentation package known as the Vertical Automated Profiling System which measures, in an unattended self-recording mode, such physical variables as temperature, time depth, current direction and speed, and engineering data such as instrument tilt. First, a brief description is provided, followed by the results of three experimental tests: 1) the towing tank tests, 2) the field dwell experiments, and 3) the field profiling runs. Finally, evaluations and recommendations are summarized. In an appendix, the calibration curves and conversion relations are tabulated for the various sensors"--Abstract.
