POMET - monitoring of scientific fisheries in estuaries for WFD quality

The POMET database is used to record the results of scientific fisheries carried out within the framework of the WFD water quality assessment in French estuaries.

The Water Framework Directive (WFD) requires member states to monitor water quality, particularly in estuaries. A methodology, based on fishing, was set up in the 2000s.
The POMET database, hosted in a Postgresql server, is used to store all the information collected during fishing. The operators feed it directly using a web application made available to them, which guarantees the quality of the data entered.
