Working to improve DFO's data availability and accessibility!
Datasets currently apply to commercial BC fisheries, except as noted
- Contracts lists DFO's financial contracts over $10,000 (nationwide)
- Harvests contains landed weight and value data for various fisheries and/or combinations of fisheries
- Licences contains current and historical records of commercial licence ownership
- Digitize Me contains files that need to be digitized - it's your chance to help out!
All data are (or have been) publicly available somewhere on DFO's website. As a result, please feel free to use the data with attribution to Fisheries and Oceans Canada (and perhaps a shout-out to Ecotrust Canada if you're feeling generous).
File-specific metadata is provided in each subfolder.
