Microsoft Windows 2000 Version 5.0 (Build 2195) Service Pack 3; ESRI ArcCatalog 8.3.0.800

Data_Quality_Information:

Attribute_Accuracy:

Attribute_Accuracy_Report:

The number of people actively fishing is sourced from WRI Earthtrends data portal. Length of the coastline is derived from Digital Chart of the World (DCW), ESRI, 1992, 1: 1 million data set.

Completeness_Report:

Data is incomplete for the number of people actively fishing, therefore the fishing pressure index for certain countries is not known.
