FAO and Eurostat deliver the Fisheries Catch SDMX Data Structure Definition (DSD)
The SEIF initiative (SDMX for Eurostat, ICES and FAO) aims to apply SDMX to the domain of fisheries statistics at international level. The SEIF Catch 2010 exercise was recently closed with the delivery of the Catch DSD, a single set of code-lists, and a strategy for further development. The DSD created will be used by Eurostat in 2011 for SDMX catch data collection on a voluntary basis by Member States, and FAO will be able to receive and interpret data that use the DSD.
