Attribute Summary

Score Req'd? PKey? » Name Data Storage Type Description
100 Yes No ID# character identification number of a unique individual dolphin. The CB prefix indicates Choctawhatchee Bay
100 Yes No Survey Date Date Date Of Observation
100 Yes No Enc# Integer encounter number, encounter count is reset to 1 at the beginning of each survey/day
100 Yes No Vessel Character Name of Vessel Used For Data Collection
100 Yes No Lat numeric Latitude of observation
100 Yes No Long Numeric Longitude of observation
100 Yes No Distinctiveness character a subjective measure of dorsal fin distinctiveness or “recognizability”,.
100 No No NTEC character Non-trailing edge characteristics (NTEC) - indicates a distinctive mark on the dorsal fin or peduncle of the animal with an otherwise clean trailing edge of the dorsal fin LEN=Leading Edge Notch PN=Peduncle Notch TN=Top Notch Dent=indent rather than notch
100 Yes No Photo Quality character Coded value which reprsents a subjective measure of photographic quality. Factors influencing photo quality include: degree of focus, angle, contrast, distance, and whole or partial dorsal fin exposure (e.g., if a dorsal fin is partially submerged by water)
100 No No Biopsy character Sample identification number of an individual if a remote biopsy sample was collected during the encounter
100 No No Sex Character biological sex identified from photographs for some individuals (e.g., a photograph of the genitalia)
100 Yes No Effort Character Survey effort designated as "on" or "of" depending on the watch status of the survey crew. Surveys designated as "on" followed standard visual survey protocol, as described in Conn et al. 2011.
