Full description

This data contains summaries of Victorian Fisheries Authority logbook data on effort distribution for VIC commercial fisheries in state marine and estuarine waters. The logbook data has been recorded and submitted to Victorian Fisheries Authority by commercial fishers.
The data are aggregated to produce summaries of total effort by gear type (summarised across fishery), over 5 year periods and at a 0.1 degree resolution where 5 boats or more operate. All effort information has been removed for areas where less than 5 boats operate and these areas are mapped to a 1 degree resolution.
The 5 year period (2011-2015) corresponds to State of Environment (SoE) Reporting, required under the EPBC Act 1999. Each map layer is labelled by the years aggregated (“2015” for 2011-2015) and the gear type (“HG” = Hand Gathering). The gear codes and aggregated fisheries and the shape file field descriptions are listed below.

Lineage

Statement: The data were supplied for the purpose of research being undertaken by CSIRO under the NESP Marine Biodiversity Hub to produce an interactive map of pressures on the marine environment (at a broad spatial scale) that will enable a systematic understanding of the different pressures acting in different areas.
