A user's guide to the structure of longline hook data in GFBio, the Pacific Region's groundfish biological database / by Karina Cooke and Norm Olsen.: Fs97-4/3174E-PDF

"GFBio is a relational database system designed to archive groundfish biological data. It is organized hierarchically, modelling the at-sea data collection process. It houses data that are collected from many different gear types for which fishing methods, data collection, storage and extraction can differ significantly. Streams of longline hook data are received annually and are uploaded into GFBio. They are rich in information, consisting of data collected for each longline set or 'string', skates, and hooks, and populate a large number of fields, particularly in the Fishing Event and Catch tables. This document provides a guide to the storage of longline-specific data in GFBio"--Abstract, page vii.
