Description: NOAA’s Northeast Fisheries Science Center (NEFSC) developed a collection of commercial fishing activity maps called Fishing Footprints. These data summarize the spatial extent of fishing activity by combining Vessel Trip Report (VTR) and dealer report data and modeling the probability of a vessel’s fishing location using observer data. Data provided comply with data confidentiality requirements under the Magnuson-Stevens Act through aggregation. The data was summarized to show fishing activity in terms of pounds of fish landed (“landings”) or value (“revenue”) by Fishery Management Plan (FMP), species, fishing gear type, and time periods. Data was summarized on a 500 x 500 meter grid, showing activity within each grid cell. For more information on the Fishing Footprints methodology, please see <a href="https://repository.library.noaa.gov/view/noaa/4806" target="_blank">DePiper G.S. 2014.

Here revenue and landings have been summarized for two time periods 2011-2015 and 2016-2020 for both FMP and gear type. The values represent annual averages over each 5 year period. The data shown here has been filtered from the original data. Areas where revenue was less than $25 was excluded from both the revenue and corresponding landings data. Additionally, some of the “other” gear types with very little fishing activity were excluded from this set of data. Data are grouped into categories for time period, gear type/FMP, and revenue/landings.

It is important to note that these public datasets have suppressed certain information due to confidentiality concerns and are meant to present general patterns of commercial fishing activity. To obtain the most accurate estimates of fishing activity, particularly in the case of offshore wind development, please see the region’s socioeconomic impacts page or contact <A HREF="mailto:NMFS.GAR.Data.Requests@noaa.gov">NMFS.GAR.Data.Requests@noaa.gov</A>.
