SIRFIS is and acronym for Standardised Integrated Recreational Fisheries Information System. The system is designed to provide a user friendly and flexible environment in which to enter, store and retrieve data relating to recreational fisheries. The system also allows storage of comprehensive metadata (information about the data collection such as the methodology used) as well as storing associated documents such as journal articles or management plans produced from the data collected.
