Polygon data maps known and commercially exploited concentration areas of the Stimpson's surfclam (Mactromeris polynyma) in the Estuary and Gulf of St. Lawrence. The dataset is based on information from exploratory fisheries, scientific surveys, fishermen's logbooks, and commercial fishery data from Fisheries and Oceans Canada. It was compiled for a 2015 research document and is intended for resource protection and management.
Available in SHP, ESRI REST, and CSV formats. Licensed under the Open Government Licence - Canada (ca-ogl-lgo). The data represents specific concentration areas, not general species distribution or legal fishing zones.
