Source: NCDEQ, 2/10/21 The Atlantic Coastal Cooperative Statistics Program’s Citizen’s Science Group is asking fishermen and others to answer a questionnaire that will help in the development of a customizable mobile application that will allow fishermen to share information about the fish they catch.
The questionnaire can be found at https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/citizen_science_app and
asks fishermen about what features they would like to see in the app. It will
take about 15 minutes to answer the questions. Questionnaire responses should
be submitted by 5 p.m. Monday, February 15.
The questionnaire is a precursor to upcoming workshops. For more
information about the app and the upcoming meetings, see https://safmc.net/cit-sci/customizable-citizen-science-app/ or
contact the Citizen Science Program Manager Julia Byrd at Julia.Byrd@safmc.net or
843-302-8439. The N.C. Division of Marine Fisheries is
participating in this program and developing an app that will collect flounder
catch and release data to the species level. Knowing if fishermen can identify
individual flounder species will aid in decisions regarding flounder fisheries
management.
