The regulations in the Common Fisheries Policy require
the collection of data on fishing and the landing of fishery products from the
EU Member States. In Slovenia, captains of all fishing
vessels are obliged to keep logbooks, as defined by the Commission
Regulation (EC) no. 2807/83.
In 2004 the Fisheries Research Institute of
Slovenia (FRIS) began the preparations for introducing the collection of
fishing data. Therefore, we translated forms of two types of logbooks and
prepared the instructions for filling out the forms.
At the
same time we began to develop a database for inputting, archiving,
controlling, and processing of data from the logbooks.
The
internet application was in use at the Institute until 2006, when the data was
taken over by the Ministry for Agriculture, Forestry and Food and included them
in their information system InfoRib.

Since turning over of the data on logbooks to the Ministry for Agriculture, Forestry and Food, the Institute deals
only with entering of the logbook data, which includes:
- Scanning logbooks,
- Transfer of the scans to the server of the
Ministry for Agriculture, Forestry and Food,
- Linking the scans with the records in the
database,
- Transcript of data, and
- Revision of the transcript.
Besides
that, the Institute archives the original logbooks.
