Item Identification

Title:	NOAA_SEFSC_GU2301_event_20240327.csv
Status:	Completed
Publication Date:	2024
Abstract:	file providing data for eventType: effort points (effortPoint), sighting cues (cue), marine mammal sightings (sighting), and additional observations, including non-mammal sightings (other). Main goal is to provide spatial-temporal and other data for these events. parentEventID links common effort points to one another by the prefix "cruiseCode_t_X"Ã‚Â, cues are linked to a specific sighting by the prefix "cruiseCode_s_X"Ã‚Â, and additional observations are linked by the prefix "cruiseCode_o_X"ÃƒÂ‚Ã‚Â€ÃƒÂ‚Ã‚Â. E.g.: GU2301_t_1: effort points for trackline 1; GU2301_s_10: cue and sighting for sighting number 10.

Entity Information

Entity Type:	Data Table
Active Version?:	Yes
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.
