The Atlas shows where fish are caught in Australia's oceans, the value of those catches, where different fishing gears are used and the species that are taken. It provides public information on spatial distribution of commercial fisheries catch. It also provides information on the socio-economic characteristics of coastal communities in eight Marine Regions around Australia.
