        Title: 
          Species Distribution: Hawaiian Monk Seal - Hawaii
    Description: 
      Abstract: 
        This dataset contains a collection of known point locations of Hawaiian 
        monk seals identified via automated satellite tracking of tagged 
        organisms. This can be useful for assessing species abundance, 
        population structure, habitat use, and behavior. This collection is 
        aggregated from multiple tagged organisms and survey periods. Each 
        data point contains attributes for further information about the time 
        and source of the observation. This dataset was compiled by the 
        Pacific Islands Ocean Observing System (PacIOOS) and may be updated in 
        the future if additional data sources are acquired.
        
        NOAA's Pacific Islands Fisheries Science Center (PIFSC) deploys 
        satellite tags on Hawaiian monk seals to track their movements around 
        the main Hawaiian Islands with the intent of improving our 
        understanding and assisting in the recovery of this critically 
        endangered species.

      Purpose: 
        PacIOOS provides timely, reliable, and accurate ocean information to 
        support a safe, clean, productive ocean and resilient coastal zone in 
        the U.S. Pacific Islands region.
