On the 5th of July we performed the fifth data acquisition for PLP2022. Sentinel-2 data of the targets were acquired, along with ancillary data measurements including wind speed and direction, sea surface temperature, incident light intensity and turbidity using a Secchi disk. Temperature measurements using the IR thermometer continue to be inconsistent, perhaps due to changing emissivity of water surface due to waves and/or glint. Water samples were also collected for chlorophyl concentration assessment for the Aquasafe project. UAS flights did not take place due to high wind conditions with gusts exceeding 14 m/sec. Cleaning of one of the 7 m diameter targets was performed to remove the biofouling accumulations. Atmospheric conditions were good with clear skies.
