Aerial surveys were conducted from 16-25 January 2016. Due to errors in recording the GPS, 25 sightings have NULL values for LatAnimal and LongAnimal. Approximate latitude and longitude values can be obtained by matching the timestamp in the effort featureclass, and using LatPlatform/LongPlatform. Similarly, due to observer/data recorder error, several sightings appear to be located on shore. Work was performed under HDR task order KB05 (IDIQ contract award N62470-15-D-8006, NAVFAC LANT).Please contact data provider2016011620160125ground conditionCompleteNone plannedPacific-123.153858-122.23271548.43886547.105602 NoneNorthwest Training Range ComplexMarine Animal SurveyMarine BiologyMarine mammalsVisual SightingAircraftNonePacificTaxon coveredMarine mammalsIntegrated Taxonomic Information SystemUnknownNot applicableDownloaded April, 2004http://www.itis.usda.gov/Refer to the contact information of the datasetRefer to the contact information of the datasetmailing and physical address
