Title:	NOAA_SEFSC_GU2301_occurrence_20240327.csv
Status:	Completed
Publication Date:	2024
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.
