Proposed revision to the estimation of fisheries footprints
Abstract: A revised approach to the estimation of longline fisheries footprints is presented. The ... method uses a data-derived estimate of the uncertainty around the locations of longlines to define a ... buffer around these lines. Within a georeferenced framework, buffered lines are then matched to a 10km ... grid. The proportion of the area of each grid cell that is covered by buffered lines is then used as a ...
