Based on a literature survey and on our own experiences,we reviewed possible application problems in survey design,field survey,and data analysis stages of such kinds of surveys in Chinese waters. Thus,for survey design,relevant recommendations on transect design were proposed. For field surveys,suggestions were made on observation platforms,observer configurations,observation meth- ods,and recording methods. For data analysis,we proposed processing procedures on preliminary treatment of data and line transect analysis based on R programming platform and Distance program. We hope this paper would facilitate the nor- malization of line transect surveys in China. Key words :Baiji (Lipotes vexillifer);Line transect method;Survey method
