Abstract  Global vector grid at 1deg x 1deg resolution
Purpose  Recognizing the need for areal breakdown, the CWP has suggested that a graticule-based system could be usedthroughout the globe and has recommended that the quadrangles (also called rectangles or squares) be codedand identified according to the standard rules defined at http://www.fao.org/cwp-on-fishery-statistics/handbook/g

Statement  Material & Methods
Description  Step 1 - Grid generation: The present global vector grid has been generated using the R language for statistical computing. The algorithm to generate the grid is available as R function 'createCWPGrid' and exported to a zipped ESRI Shapefile format using R function 'exportFeature' findable in the RFigisGeo package (available at https://github.com/openfigis/RFigisGeo).
