• Description:
  The Massachusetts Division of Marine Fisheries has collected fisheries statistics since the inception of the Agency. In 1966, the Division began to expand its fisheries statistics collection, analysis and dissemination with the assistance of various Federal Grants from the National Marine Fisheries Service, and it's predecessor the Bureau of Commercial Fisheries under The Commercial Fisheries Research Act, and later, The Interjurisdictional Fisheries Act. Since the 1980's the scope of the projects funded have expanded to include computer processing and Management Information Systems. This current project (3- IJ-163), calls for the continued collection of all the statistics previously collected, expansion of collection systems to include new species and fisheries, development of systems to effectively monitor IJ species now being managed by individual state quotas and the development of GIS (Geographic Information Systems) technology and applications that would allow spatial analysis of fisheries data.
