MANIFEST (Mote’s Automated Nesting Information Forms for Sea Turtles) is a computer program designed to facilitate the collection and transfer of nesting survey data for Mote Marine Laboratory’s Sea Turtle Conservation and Research Program.
Here is the poster that Mote Marine Laboratory presented at the 28th International Sea Turtle Symposium in January 2007 in Loreto, Baja California, Mexico.
*** Manifest does NOT work on Windows 7 (due to an incompatibility with ActiveSync)***
