date_time: date and time at which the measurement was measured, not corrected, in the format YYYY-MM-DD hh:mm:ss [UTC]
COG: course over ground of the vessel [decimal degrees]
HEADING: heading of the vessel [decimal degrees]
WDR1: relative wind direction to the heading of the vessel measured by starboard sensor [decimal degrees]
WSR1: relative wind speed to that of the vessel measured by starboard sensor [metres per second]
WD1: true wind direction measured by the starboard sensor [decimal degrees]
WS1: true wind speed measured by the starboard sensor [metres per second]
WDR2: relative wind direction to the heading of the vessel measured by port sensor [decimal degrees]
