Summary

Abstract

file providing data for sightings and samples (Occurrence). Main goal is to provide species identification for sightings and samples and group size counts for sightings (individualCount), among other data.

Sightings are uniquely identified by occurrenceID and samples by materialSampleID. E.g.: 1_15-Apr-04: sighting number 1 from 15-Apr-04; GU-20040415-07-01: sample number 1 (01) collected on the Gordon Gunter (GU), on 15-Apr-04 (20040415), under sighting number 7 (07).

Description

Provides data for sightings and samples (Occurrence). Main goal is to provide species identification for sightings and samples and group size counts for sightings (individualCount), among other data.
