    Abstract

    Being able to correctly identify species is crucial in observer’s tasks and data quality implies very good knowledge from observers. Identification quality is related to observer’s training and resources provided by technical coordinators.

    This document is updating the original tool described in WG-FSA-15/75, developed as  a “serious game” for observers to more easily learn species names before to go at sea or when steaming for example.
