About this app

The New Zealand Department of Conservation Protected Species Catch application is for collecting data anonymously on accidental catch of our marine protected species by recreational fishers.

This application allows users to report any accidental catch of protected species themselves, or on behalf of someone else. The data collected is to be used for conservation purposes in New Zealand and the reported catch data can be viewed at docnewzealand.shinyapps.io/protectedspeciescatch

Access and reporting via the Protected Species Catch application is completely anonymous and will not require any logon credentials. For enquires regarding this application please contact: doc.govt.nz/recreational-fishing-bycatch

Key features of the Protected Species Catch application are:

• Completely anonymous
• Allows efficient and effective reporting of marine protected species catch
• Easy reporting of location, fishing method, and species from drop-down menus
• Works in a completely offline environment

This application was developed by XEquals on behalf of the New Zealand Department of Conservation
