This data contains summaries of South Australia non-confidential logbook data on effort distribution for South Australian commercial fisheries in state marine waters. The logbook data has been recorded and submitted to South Australian Research and Development Institute by commercial fishers. The data are aggregated to produce summaries of total effort by fishing activity or method, over 5 year periods and where 5 boats or more operate. All effort information has been removed for areas where less than 5 boats operate. The 5 year period (2011-2015) corresponds to State of Environment (SoE) Reporting, required under the EPBC Act 1999. The gear codes and aggregated fisheries and the shape file field descriptions are listed below.
