We apply the anomaly detection algorithm to four glider deployments across the coastal ocean of Florida and Georgia, USA. For evaluation, the anomaly detected by the algorithm is cross-validated by high-resolution glider DBD data and pilot notes. We simulate the online detection process on SBD and compare the result with that detected from DBD.
