It is the result of the aggregation of EUROSTAT's fish catches datasets fish_ca_atl 27, fish_ca_atl 34, fish_ca_atl 37, fish_ca_atl271, fish_ca_atl272, fish_ca_atl34_h and fish_ca_atl37_h. It is available for viewing and download on EMODnet web portal (Human Activities, https://emodnet.ec.europa.eu/en/human-activities). EUROSTAT data have been related to FAO's georeferenced fishing areas (polygons) for statisticl purposes (FAO, 2020. FAO Statistical Areas for Fishery Purposes. In: FAO Fisheries and Aquaculture Department). Tonnes live weight is provided for each fish species caught (3-alpha code and english or scientific name if the english one is not available), by EUMOFA's larger aggregations such as EUMOFA's Commodity Groups and Main Commercial Species (see 'Species_Eumofa_ASFIS_2023' table), by year of reference and country (code and name). The dataset is updated yearly and it covers a time series from 1950 to 2021, where available. Compared with the previous version this new one's schema have been updated.

The portal makes available information such as geographical position, spatial extent of a series of activities related to the sea, their temporal variation, time when data was provided, and attributes to indicate the intensity of each activity. The data are aggregated and presented so as to preserve personal privacy and commercially-sensitive information. The data also include a time interval so that historic as well as current activities can be included. https://ows.emodnet-humanactivities.eu/geonetwork/srv/api/records/b0f7ef21-1b05-4874-8549-45981e9de345/attachments/EMODnet_HA_Fish_Catches_20230926.zip WWW:DOWNLOAD EMODnet_HA_Fish_Catches_20230926.zip ZIP (File Geodatabase / Shapefile) https://ows.emodnet-humanactivities.eu/wms?

The aggregated EUROSTAT data on fish catches are related to the FAO statistical areas for fisheries purposes vector dataset using a one-to-many relationship class, through the values of their key fields 'FISHREG_FAO' (added to the EUROSAT dataset) and 'F_CODE'. In the EUROSTAT datasets some catches are not allocated to a specific fishing region (Not Known). For this reason in some cases it may be possible that the sum of sub-levels totals differs from the corresponding figure at the upper level of aggreagation. The area name has been added to the the geograhic data. The complete dataset is also available in CSV format.
