Description:
Abstract:
The British Columbia Marine Conservation Analysis (BCMCA) is a collaborative project assembling and analyzing spatial information about Canada's Pacific Ocean. The overall goal of the BCMCA is to identify marine areas of high conservation value and marine areas important to human use. Results of the project are intended to inform and help advance marine planning initiatives in BC by providing collaborative, peer-reviewed scientific analyses based on the best ecological and human use spatial data at scales relevant to a BC coast-wide analysis.
Purpose:
The purpose of this dataset is to identify the areal extents of iphc survey data on the BC coast to create the feature recommended at the BCMCA Marine and Anadromous Fish Experts Workshop.

Process_Description:
Data was received in an Excel spreadsheet with coordinates in decimal minutes. The coordinates were updated to decimal degrees and the spreadsheet was imported into an Access database to facilitate processing. Data was summarized by site and year to get an Total Number of Pieces caught (for all species) and a Percent of the hooks returned with catch using the following SQL: SELECT surveys2003_2009.stlkey, surveys2003_2009.Year, surveys2003_2009.Station, surveys2003_2009.lat_dd, surveys2003_2009.long_dd, surveys2003_2009.IPHC_StatArea, surveys2003_2009.regcde, surveys2003_2009.avgdepth, surveys2003_2009.O32_Halibut, surveys2003_2009.U32_Halibut, Sum(surveys2003_2009.Number_Observed) AS TotalCount, Sum(number_observed)/hooks_retrieved AS AvgCount, surveys2003_2009.Skates_Set, surveys2003_2009.Skates_Hauled, surveys2003_2009.Hooks_Retrieved, surveys2003_2009.Hooks_Observed, surveys2003_2009.prpcde, surveys2003_2009.eff, surveys2003_2009.ineffcde INTO surveyBySite2009 FROM surveys2003_2009 WHERE (((surveys2003_2009.eff)="Y") AND ((surveys2003_2009.Year)=2009) AND (((surveys2003_2009.IPHC_Species_Number)<=290 Or (surveys2003_2009.IPHC_Species_Number)=401) And (surveys2003_2009.IPHC_Species_Number)<>100 And (surveys2003_2009.IPHC_Species_Number)<>103) AND ((surveys2003_2009.Species)<>"(none)")) GROUP BY surveys2003_2009.stlkey, surveys2003_2009.Year, surveys2003_2009.Station, surveys2003_2009.lat_dd, surveys2003_2009.long_dd, surveys2003_2009.IPHC_StatArea, surveys2003_2009.regcde, surveys2003_2009.avgdepth, surveys2003_2009.O32_Halibut, surveys2003_2009.U32_Halibut, surveys2003_2009.Skates_Set, surveys2003_2009.Skates_Hauled, surveys2003_2009.Hooks_Retrieved, surveys2003_2009.Hooks_Observed, surveys2003_2009.prpcde, surveys2003_2009.eff, surveys2003_2009.ineffcde, surveys2003_2009.SubSample;

Process_Description:
Coordinates were plotted in ArcGIS and saved to a new feature class. The feature class was projected to BC Albers (batch projection for all years) to match the other BCMCA datasets. The percCount field was added to display the percentage in a more user-friendly format on the Atlas Page.
