Abstract
Full Abstract:
The Full Coast transect information for the Atlantic Winter Sea Duck Survey which was conducted from 2008-2014. This dataset presents the west and east GPS coordinates (latitude and longitude) for all transects for all 'full coast' surveys (i.e., excluding regional surveys in the mid-Atlantic and along the southern coast), the state it is located, and the geography class which is body of water it is located from both the Atlantic Coast Winter Sea Duck survey and the Atlantic Marine Assessment Program for Protected Species.

Definition:
The Full Coast transect information for the Atlantic Winter Sea Duck Survey.
Number of Header Lines: 1
Attribute: transect id
Name: transect id
Code: transect_id
Definition:
The transect number, east-west code, and two digits. Most transects have only a single segment, which is identified by 00. For transects with multiple segments (which may be separated by land or open water or may be contiguous), the digits 00 identify the most westerly transect, 01 indicates the next transect to the east, etc...
