Real-time oceanography from sailbuoy Echo's long-endurance data acquisition campaign for the Glider project. The study area ranged from 66–71N and 8–19E, focusing on the coastal shelf area surrounding the Lofoten and Vesterålen islands, Norway, from March to August 2018. The dataset contains 4684 oceanography data points, and ~10000 auxiliary data points, spread over a period of 154 days.
