EMODnet EMODnet Human Activities: Fishing effort by FAO statistical area and GFCM area

The dataset on fishing effort in the EU waters was created in 2020 by Cogea for the European Marine Observation and Data Network (EMODnet). It is updated every year and is available for viewing and download on the EMODnet web portal (Human Activities, https://emodnet.ec.europa.eu/en/human-activities). The dataset is the result of the elaboration of the 'STECF 22-06 - EU Fleet Economic and Transversal data_fleet segment (Version 1.1)' of the Scientific, Technical and Economic Committee for Fisheries (STECF) of the EU Commission (JRC). Aggregated STECF data have been related to georeferenced FAO's fishing statistical areas (27, 34 and 37, at all levels) and to Geographical subareas (GSAs) of the FAO's General Fisheries Commission for the Mediterranean (GFCM). Where and when available, data on Days at sea, Fishing days, Gross Tonnage fishing days, kW fishing days are provided for each FAO fishing statistical area and GSA by year of reference, Country, fishing technology and vessel length classes. With this update the dataset covers now a time series from 2008 to 2021.

Statement

STECF data on fishing effort were aggregated by FAO statistical area, at all levels, and by GFCM areas and then related to FAO statistical areas and to GFCM GSASs features in a geodatabase using a one-to-many relationship class. Regions codes have been harmonized. All information is pre-validated by STECF and FAO. The GFCm GSA11.1 and GSA11.2 have been merged into an additional area, the GSA11. Feature classes and tables are related through the F_CODE field (Major, subarea, division, subdivision, subunit) and SUB_REG field (GFCM_GSAs).
