[Seavox] L06 extensions

[Lowry, Roy K.]

Dear All,

Discussions on this have gone quiet, so I'll summarise what has been said into a proposal for change:

New codes:

CODE: 3C
Preferred Label: surface gliders
Definition: A platform with buoyancy-based propulsion that is confined to operation on the sea surface.
Mapping: broadMatch to surface autonomous vehicle

CODE: 27
Preferred Label: sub-surface gliders
Definition: A platform with buoyancy-based propulsion that is able to operate within the water column.
Mapping: broadMatch to autonomous underwater vehicle

CODE: 49
Preferred Label:  surface ice buoy
Definition: An undrogued surface float that is deployed in regions where sea ice forms that moves with either ice or water depending upon the time of year.
Mapping: broadMatch drifting surface float

CODE: 93
Preferred Label: pack ice
Definition: Sea ice not connected to land covering over 70% of the sea surface.
Mapping: broadMatch cryosphere

CODE: 94
Preferred Label: drift ice
Definition: Sea ice not connected to land covering under 70% of the sea surface.
Mapping: broadMatch cryosphere

If there are no further comments I'll add these records to the vocabulary when I return from leave on August 20th.

Cheers, Roy.
