      <para>The original survey data are separated into two datasets, from left-side and right-side observers upon provider's request. This dataset is from the right side sighting data. The left side sighting data are available on OBIS-SEAMAP in the &lt;a href=/datasets/detail/1138&gt;AFTT Hatteras Aerial Survey -Left side- 2012-2013&lt;/a&gt; dataset.

This dataset includes a subset of the data collection for the Hatteras Aerial surveys.
All the data of the collection are available in the following datasets including this dataset:
