The collection and processing of commercial catch/effort statistics in the Scotia-Fundy Region during 1967-82 / by J. McMillan and R.N. O'Boyle.Fs97-4/1892E-PDF

"The collection and compilation of catch/effort data has been undertaken since the 1960s in the Maritime Region. Early paper and manual systems have over time been largely replaced by more efficient computer based ones. Editing of the generated files is still a large part of recent system developments. All systems, both historical and current, have placed a large number of processing steps between the originator of the data, the fisherman, and the user of the data, normally an economist or biologist. It is thus very important to any analysis of this data that a full understanding of the various data fields on the computer files be obtained. Consequently a comprehensive description of data flow is given for the catch/effort data collected in the Maritimes during 1967-82"--Abstract, page iv.
