Data Quality
Representativeness: |
Biological samples are collected based on sampling requirements provided by the stock assessment requirements |
---|---|
Accuracy: |
Accuracy of species identification is determined by comparing the biological samples with the information from the fish dealer reports and the vessel trip reports. |
Quality Control Procedures Employed: |
Routine audits are run as the data is entered and post audits are run when the master data sets are created. The Age and Growth staff also run reports which produce age/length keys which are used to detect outliers. |
Data Management
Have Resources for Management of these Data Been Identified?: | Yes |
---|---|
Approximate Percentage of Budget for these Data Devoted to Data Management: | Unknown |
Do these Data Comply with the Data Access Directive?: | Yes |
Is Access to the Data Limited Based on an Approved Waiver?: | Yes |
If Distributor (Data Hosting Service) is Needed, Please Indicate: | Yes |
Approximate Delay Between Data Collection and Dissemination: | 1 year |
Actual or Planned Long-Term Data Archive Location: | To Be Determined |
If To Be Determined, Unable to Archive, or No Archiving Intended, Explain: |
Data archived at NEFSC but may also be archived at TBD location. |
Approximate Delay Between Data Collection and Archiving: | 2 months |
How Will the Data Be Protected from Accidental or Malicious Modification or Deletion Prior to Receipt by the Archive?: |
Data is backed up as entered into the Oracle data tables |
Lineage
Lineage Statement: |
Data is collected by fisheries reporting specialist at the ports from fish processors; data is entered into a web-based data entry system by reporting specialist; age structures are sent to Age and Growth department for processing; age of fish are added to the age data set by Age and Growth staff; data is processed to master data format by database manager for CFDBS. |
