Remaining challenges lie in verifying and harmonising ERS data. The coupling of logbook
and VMS data has already proven powerful for describing the spatial distribution of the
marine biota habitat at a much finer spatial and temporal resolutions. The VMS and logbook
data analysis involves extracting VMS pings from cruise track records that match fishing
activities. More than 40% of logbook records were found with correct geographical locations
with 0.3-degree precision in 2015. However, 9% of the log data were considered as "cannot
be verified” under the data verification programme for catch certification for fish and fishery
product export. Such cases of no-verification were mostly observed due to incorrect location
data.

Diversity of ERS file formats can impede global sharing of pertinent data for fisheries
management. DG MARE addressed this by calling for ways to harmonise data file formats.
This resulted in the development of FLUX (Fisheries Language for Universal eXchange) format
of data exchange designed in 2015.
