Metadata: 2011 Commercial Fishing: Important Inshore Fishing Grounds around Grampian
Abstract:
In order to better understand the nature, extent and intensity of interactions amongst coastal users, Marine Scotland asked the Local Coastal Partnerships to collect spatial data not already represented in national datasets. This map shows important areas for shellfish fishing around Grampian. It was created by the East Grampian Local Coastal Partnership, and covers the area of sea out to 12 miles. The source was from local fishermen: two skippers were interviewed, representing the very North (Fraserburgh) and the South of the Region (Gourdon). The fishermen drew on maps areas important to them, what gear they used, species caught. They were not asked intensity or season used, or social / cultural background questions. The data set is far from complete and consultation with a larger more representative sample size of fishermen is strongly advised.

Internal code | Internally assigned metadata identifier | 2127 |
Title | The title is used to provide a brief and precise description of the dataset such as 'Date', 'Originating organisation/programme', 'Location' and 'Type of survey'. All acronyms and abbreviations should be reproduced in full. | 2011 Commercial Fishing: Important Inshore Fishing Grounds around Grampian |
File Identifier | The File Identifier is a code, preferably a GUID, that is globally unique and remains with the same metadata record even if the record is edited or transferred between portals or tools. | 0190f7d2bde03df3268b3859505fa53a |
Resource Identifier | This is the code assigned by the data owner. | EGCP-1 |
Resource type | The resource type will likely be a dataset but could also be a series (collection of datasets with a common specification) or a service. | dataset |
Start date | This describes the date the resource starts. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 2011-09-05 |
End date | This describes the date the resource ends. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 2011-12-15 |
Spatial resolution | This describes the spatial resolution of the dataset or the spatial limitations of the service. | 2000 |
Spatial resolution unit | This describes the unit of spatial resolution which for distance must be metres. | http://standards.iso.org/ittf/PubliclyAvailableStandards/ISO_19139_Schemas/resources/uom/gmxUom.xml#m |
Frequency of updates | This describes the frequency with which the resource is modified or updated i.e. a monitoring programme that samples once per year has a frequency that is described as 'annually'. | asNeeded |

Lineage | Lineage includes the background information, history of the sources of data, data quality statements and methods. | This dataset was collected by the East Grampian Coastal Partnership who interviewed one creel fisherman in South Grampian and a group of eight fishermen in North Grampian. The mapped activity was directly input into UDIG GIS with the contributor. No social or economic questions were asked. The data was then 'cleansed' by Marine Atlas Consultants (commissioned by the Scottish Coastal Forum) - the projection was changed from BNG to WGS86, a table was attributed retrospectively with the interviewer to ensure it complies with Quality Assurance SOPs, MEDIN data standards (as best as possible), and confidence levels assigned using criteria based on "MMO checklist to assess the quality of evidence". This best practice is detailed in a final report to the EGCP and the SCF. If any sensitive species or biotope records are present within this dataset, they will have been removed. If you wish to request access to sensitive species records, please contact the metadata contact. The UK Sensitive Species list has been agreed by UK statutory bodies and relevant experts. It can be viewed here https://docs.nbnatlas.org/sensitive-species-list/. Please note sensitive species lists can vary across the UK. |
