The results were intended primarily to inform assessments of the conservation status of all cetacean species and to help assess the impact of bycatch of common dolphin.Please contact data providerSurveys from seven different vessels were merged. Each vessel contained two sightings platforms running concurrently – primary and tracker. This dataset includes sightings from the tracker platform. Sightings from the primary platform are registered in <a href='/dataset/1180' target='_blank'>CODA cetacean sightings on primary platform of vessel surveys 2007</a>. Effort (vessel tracks) is associated with the primary platform dataset.2007070420070730ground conditionCompleteNone plannedNorth Atlantic Ocean-17.53-2.2960.0642.05 NoneMarine Animal SurveyMarine BiologyMarine mammalsVisual SightingVesselNoneNorth Atlantic Ocean Open public unless otherwise noted.1.
