Dataset credits: The U.S. Navy Marine Species Monitoring Program Abstract: Data in this dataset represent animal sightings recorded during a 10-day shore-based marine mammal survey in the Mariana Islands. Observations were conducted from two separate vantage points, both located on Andersen Air Force Base on the northeast coast of Guam. Survey dates were 3-12 Mar 2015. Work was performed under HDR task order KB23 (IDIQ contract award N62470-10-D-3011, NAVFAC LANT). Supplemental information: Survey station locations are available as a static layer. One sighting of Melon-headed whale on 2015-03-12 13:36:50 (144.993618, 13.459862) was far from the shore stations and deleted by OBIS-SEAMAP.
