1. Title: Comparative analysis of ADC values between high-cost (US331-000005-030PA) and low-cost (B07YZLCSRP) depth sensors
2. Description of the dataset: The dataset provides a comparison between an expensive depth sensor, the "US331-000005-030PA" priced at €237.86, and a cheaper sensor, the "B07YZLCSRP" costing €25.45. The dataset includes the ADC values from both sensors as well as the offset between them.

METHODOLOGICAL INFORMATION
--------------------------

1. Description of methods used for collection/generation of data: 
Data were collected using an autonomous underwater profiler called s-Nautilus at the Real Club de Regatas de Cartagena. During this test, the s-Nautilus profiler was moved to various depths, and the time and 12-bit ADC values from both sensors were recorded. Additionally, the offset between the two sensors was calculated.
