Huge thanks to Jack Lucas for representing the Working Group for the #JCDP last week at the @ICES_ASC #StrengthInCollaboration #Data #FAIR
July marked the 2nd anniversary of launching the JCDP. In just 2 years we have created a set of tools for standardising, storing and accessing effort-based cetacean data and accepted almost 550,000 km of survey effort to the Portal
The JCDP continues to develop in functionality, expanding the data collated on the portal to include other marine species and the development of data products
The JCDP aims to make cetacean data more accessible to all to provide a stronger base for quality analyses in support of cetacean conservation and management. Head to the info hub for guidance on submitting, viewing or using data:

Recently the @ICES_ASC Working Group for the #JCDP met in Copenhagen to develop some exciting new features and decide on our priorities for the JCDP over the next 3 years. The JCDP has achieved a lot so far but #ItsOnlyTheBeginning
#WatchThisSpace
We are excited to be attending the 35th @EuroCetSoc conference next week!
Come chat about cetacean data on Wednesday afternoon during poster session A

We've updated our website!
The JCDP Information Hub has been updated with the latest updates from the JCDP, and made it easier to find information to help use the JCDP to submit or download cetacean survey data.
