This project examines the expansive fisheries information warehouse collected and maintained by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and the U.S. Coast Guard as a means to facilitate the work of the Coast Guard First District Enforcement Branch (D1 (dre)) as they enforce domestic fisheries law on U.S. flagged commercial fishing vessels. The overall objective is to analyze this large data warehouse and derive processes, through tools such as ArcGIS and Microsoft Access, that may indicate anomalous fishing activity and assist mission managers of D1 in determining which fishing vessels may warrant further law enforcement action, and ultimately where to geographically deploy Coast Guard assets.
