29943 Data Set Published / External 6344 Cost Earnings Data - Longline (American Samoa and Hawaii) Project Completed The data collection project assessed the economic performance of American Samoa-based longline vessels that made trips in 2009. Operational and vessel costs were collected by personal interviews with vessel owners, captains, and crew. The project estimated the cost-earnings for each individual longline vessel.

None None The surveys completed are generally representative of cost-earnings for American Samoa longline fishery operations during 2009. After the data were recorded through in-person primary data collection methods (paper), data were entered into the data entry file (MS Access database). The entered data were subject to logic tests and appropriate skip patterns. The data were assessed for outliers and cleaned. Finally, the cleaned data were used to generate data reports and summaries.
