Title: AFSC/RACE/GAP: RACE Groundfish Survey Photo Database
Short Name: AFSC/RACE/GAP: RACE Groundfish SurveyPhoto Database
Status: In Work
Abstract:

The core function of the Resource Assessment and Conservation Engineering (RACE) Groundfish Assessment Program (GAP) is to conduct quantitative fishery surveys and related ecological and oceanographic research to measure and describe the distribution and abundance of commercially important fish and crab stocks in the eastern Bering Sea, Aleutian Islands, Gulf of Alaska. As part of the quality control and general documentation of these efforts, digital photographs are taken during each of the surveys. These photos are stored on an AFSC server as .jpg files.

Purpose:

The photos are used to facilitate identification of collected voucher specimens, to augment field identification materials and publications, and to document survey conditions, collections, and procedures.
