Summary

Abstract

Provides data for basisOfRecord occurrence: sightings (marine mammal) and other (non-mammal sightings). Main goal is to provide species identification of marine organisms.

Sightings and other observations are uniquely identified by occurrenceID. E.g.: 1_637_40: mammal sighting number 1, effortPoint 637, species code 40 (Atlantic spotted dolphin - Stenella frontalis); 35_43421_303: non-mammal sighting number 35, effortPoint 43421, species code 303 (Green sea turtle - Chelonia mydas.

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.
