  <dc:description xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">This Fisheries Science Partnership (FSP) project initiated a self-sampling 
programme, through collaboration between industry and scientists, to respond 
to the need of data. Fishers filled in dedicated logbooks with trip and haul 
details; measuring boards and (sub) sampling buckets were provided and were 
used by fishers to collect length frequency distribution measurements twice 
per months. An image recognition software was developed to automate the 
digitisation of the handwritten logbooks and datasheets into spreadsheets. A 
similar sampling scheme was agreed with the relevant processors, who provided 
information on total catches per trip, length frequency distribution and 
individual weights.</dc:description>
