2 FAO HQ, 19-22 March 2018 Setting the Scene

 The CWP is a forum and mechanism, functional since 1960, to streamline statistical activities among the relevant RFBs and create standard concepts, definitions, classifications and methodologies for the collection and collation of fishery statistics.

 The incessant increase of diversification of information systems among fisheries institutions produced multiplicity of dissemination structures, definitions and formats.

 It has been always shown the need to structure and exchange the reference data together with statistical datasets to enable their identification and interoperability across different databases of statistical institutions.

 In the CWP 25th plenary meeting held in 2016 in Rome, the ad-hoc Task Group on “Reference harmonization for capture fisheries and aquaculture statistics” was established.

3 FAO HQ, 19-22 March 2018 Task Group Objectives

• Main objectives of the ad-hoc Task Group are:

- improve the multilateral exchange between CWP parties and reduce the burden of multiple reporting from the data producers

- build a CWP standard for global Data Structure Definition (DSD) that compiles minimum data requirements of the aquaculture production and capture datasets,

- disseminate Standard for global DSD and related metadata, based on common set of statistical concepts and a standard terminology.

4 FAO HQ, 19-22 March 2018 Task Group Activities

• CWP members that expressed their interest are: CCSBT, EUROSTAT, FAO, GFCM, IATTC, ICCAT ICES, IOTC, NACA, OECD, SEAFO and SPC-WCPFC.

• Activities

- 23rd March 2017: Teleconference for kick-off .

- 20th June 2017: First proposal of global DSD presented in CWP-IS meeting.

- 2nd November 2017: Second draft of working document and global DSDs

- 19th March 2018: Sub-group of tuna RFMOs to thoroughly review the global DSDs and their components.

5 FAO HQ, 19-22 March 2018 Tuna RFMOs Sub-Group

This sub-group is cluster of Tuna bodies aiming to reflect and boost the CWP Task Group activities

Objectives • Review the proposals of CWP standard for global DSD and terminology used to define its structural elements and related codification. • Scrutinize and review the mapping between the codes of Tuna RFMOs and CWP standards.

Outputs • Outputs will be presented to other CWP parties in the coming session towards endorsement. • Validation of CWP standard for the global DSD for Tuna data (catch, catch and effort, logbook) and related metadata. • Validation of the mapping between codes of Tuna RFMOs and CWP

standards. 6 FAO HQ, 19-22 March 2018 Terminology

• Data Structure Definition describes how information in a specific dataset is structured in terms of their dimensionality and coding schemes. The structure is composed of a selection of measures, associated dimensions that gather lists of codes.

• Reference data are sets of values or classification schemas that are widely re- used and referenced by systems, applications, data stores, processes, and reports. In our context, reference data of the global DSD represents the authoritative information to be adopted whenever possible. When the DSD’s reference data cannot meet the requirements of CWP Parties, they use concepts for their specific purpose to characterize or standardize their own information.

9 FAO HQ, 19-22 March 2018 Summary of feedback

Main Comments

 To broaden the scope/data domain of the global DSD by compiling essential dimensions/concepts for data collection in use broadly by the CWP parties (catch and effort).

 To use the catch defined in the CWP annex B1, and also landings, catch and effort.

 To elaborate the global DSD that could accommodate other domains of data collection (e.g. logbooks) to address the requirements of CWP Members.

 To create Building Block (module within the DSD) to collate observed or measured variables such as Catch or Effort

 The group recommended that FAO proceed with CWP registry/catalog development to be accessed through the CWP website.

10 FAO HQ, 19-22 March 2018 Summary of feedback

Three DSDs corresponding to different data domains:

DSD of Global capture production: is designed to cover the capture production in volume and value for economic purpose. Volume and value of nominal catch are compiled according to dimensions represented by concepts Country, Fishing area, Aquatic Species, and Time unit;

DSD of Catch: covers continuum of concepts (gross catch, discards, nominal catch, etc…) for management purpose to which are added Fishing gear and/or Fishery vessel concepts. The concept “value of catch” could also be included;

DSD of Catch and effort (Logbook): covers data for management purpose and the collection scheme. It contains vessel information, catch and effort for each operation (i.e haul). Information on start and end of time and location of fishing information are also included.

16 FAO HQ, 19-22 March 2018 CWP Catalog

• Specifications - A unified and collaborative catalog that compiles public reference data made available by all CWP parties - A centralized repository, as a hub, of public contents to be harvested by users to facilitate data usage and exchange. - FAO MDM services would facilitate management of CWP catalog contents and dissemination of these interoperable items

• Contents - global DSD, after endorsement by CWP - reference data used in the global DSD including the CWP standards - reference data used by each CWP party - mappings of codes between the CWP standards and CWP parties

18 FAO HQ, 19-22 March 2018 CWP Catalog

Governance – Maintenance

The governance covers practices to ensure CWP parties own the process, to maintain and disseminate the global DSD, the international classifications and the codes’ mappings.

FAO as CWP secretariat is setting best practices for maintenance of the CWP catalog contents and the dissemination workflow across the organizations (to be finalized if endorsed).

The maintenance encompasses: i. changes in the reference data and metadata already registered (e.g updates of the CWP standards available in the catalog) ii. mappings of classifications between CWP standards and any CWP party. The role of maintaining the mapping (is not frequent) should reside at the level of the CWP party. In the case of any change in the mapping codelists, updates (copies and notifications) should be made available to the CWP catalog.

28 FAO HQ, 19-22 March 2018 Harmonization at semantic level

31 FAO HQ, 19-22 March 2018 Harmonization - Mapping of Codes

• Codelist mapping is defining semantic relationships between codes of different databases. The relationships can be one to one or more complex to be mapped when it is many to one.

• The inventory revealed that CWP parties are using CWP standards coding system to a certain extent.

 Some members adopted different classification system (e.g EU DCF for EUROSTAT) which make the mapping challenging to impossible.

 Others (e.g, t-RFMOs) adopted extra codes within the same classification system for their purposes.

32 FAO HQ, 19-22 March 2018 Harmonization - Mapping of Codes

• In general, the extra codes can be grouped in two main situations:

i. built on the codes of CWP standards by aggregating a group of codes (e.g. group of species built upon the ASFIS codelist),

ii.by extending the CWP standards with more details resulting in lower level of aggregation (e.g gear codes that fall within one class/code of the ISSCFG codelist).

• The discussion should focus on solving the common issues as highest priority.

• The output is to provide codelists’ mappings to be disseminated in the CWP catalog.
