My thinking is that we try to figure out what are all the available sources for:

  • Articles and thoughts prompted by them
  • Catch stats
  • List of RFMO Performance Reviews
  • Price stats
  • Fleet stats
  • CPUE stats
  • These would include both broad sites (FAO, UNStat, EuroStat, OECDStat, atuna, and the like) as well as more specific and geographically/substantively limited sites (CCSBT, ICCAT, IOTC, etc. sites, to the extent they aren’t just a subset of FAO data).

For now, I think its better to identify the “meta-data” on sites (indicators, countries, and years covered) so we can compare coverage, quality, etc. before starting to download and merge datasets.
