Commonweath Fisheries non-confidential catch 5 year and current Maps

The datasets contain summaries of Commonwealth logbook data on catch and effort distribution for AFMA managed commercial fisheries in state marine and estuarine waters. The logbook data has been recorded and submitted to AFMA by commercial fishers. The data are aggregated to produce summaries of total catch and effort by fishery at a 0.1 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.
