<DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><DIV><P><SPAN>Alaska Statute 16.05.094 requires the Division of Subsistence (ADF&G) to conduct studies and compile existing data on all aspects of the role of subsistence hunting and fishing in the lives of state residents. The Division must also make this information available to the public, appropriate agencies, and other bodies. These data are a composite of previously collected spatial data depicting the search and harvest areas used by community residents for subsistence resources in specific years. Data were collected using a standardized method where respondents indicate the search areas for species harvested, the amounts harvested, and the location and months of harvest. Points were used to mark fish harvest locations and polygons (shaped areas) were used to indicate harvest effort areas, such as areas searched while hunting moose. Some lines were also drawn when the harvesting activity did not occur at a specific point, such as trapping and trolling. Data collection maps were usually produced for individual projects using ArcGIS software. Survey maps were typically produced at various scales and extents to accommodate both local and distant searches and harvests. All data were collected under the principles of informed consent and in accordance with the State of Alaska confidentiality statute (AS 16.05.815) and have been reviewed by their respective communities. All data are confidential at the household level and only reported on the community level.</SPAN></P></DIV></DIV></DIV> |
