Abstract
|
Global vector grid at 5deg x 5deg 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 eneral-concepts/major-fishing-areas-general/en/ |
