IMAS Metadata Catalogue
State Fisheries New South Wales
The datasets contain summaries of NSW Fisheries logbook data on catch and effort distribution for commercial fisheries in state marine and estuarine waters. The logbook data has been recorded and submitted to NSW DPI by commercial fishers. The data are aggregated to produce summaries of total catch and effort by fishery at a 1 degree resolution where 5 boats or more operate. For areas where less than 5 boats operate the data is shown as confidential. The data was mapped using 5 year - financial year periods; 2003/04 to 2007/08, 2008/09 to 2012/13, 2018/19 to 2022/23, and 1 year; 2022/23.

- Purpose
- This data and sets of maps was generate as inputs to the Futures of Seafood study State of Play (Work Package 1).Futures of Seafood delivers Australia's first comprehensive analysis of how intensifying ocean demands will reshape seafood production. This landmark 18-month study examines the cumulative impacts of competing ocean uses and policy decisions on the seafood sector. By uniting industry expertise with research capabilities, it creates a single source of truth about challenges and opportunities facing Australian seafood. Through spatial mapping, economic modeling, and social impact assessment, it provides decision-makers with essential insights for managing multiple ocean industries and ensures sustainable seafood production amid changing ocean access.
