About the Data Warehouse

The Data Warehouse is an online database populated with Atlantic coast fishery-dependent data supplied by the ACCSP's 23 program partners. The Warehouse harmonizes all of the data received into one set of codes for variables such as species, gear, and fishing area, making it possible to combine datasets from different sources for larger scale analyses.

Types of Data Available

Commercial

Commercial

Commercial landings data represent the best compilation of state and federal landings submitted by both dealers and fishermen.  Commercial Catch and Effort (trip reports) are fisherman reports, or logbooks that typically have good effort data (area/gear) but in most cases do not represent 100% of the fishing activity (pounds landed).

Biological

Biological

ACCSP has Biological sampling data for American lobster (1981-2016) and Atlantic herring (2002 - 2016) available via custom data request.

Recreational

Recreational

ACCSP has recreational catch and effort data starting in 1981 available via the Data Warehouse.  The data since 2004 have been updated in conjunction with the new Marine Recreational Information Program estimation methodology released in February 2012. This includes both the public estimates and the advanced queries for bag limit analysis and directed trips.
