      <gmd:abstract>
        <gco:CharacterString>ICES has developed the ICES fisheriesXplorer, an interactive, web-based application to enhance accessibility, transparency, and usability of fisheries assessment data and advice. Built using R’s Shiny framework, it connects directly via database API's to ICES databases and services, ensuring that the data displayed remain always up-to-date and aligned with FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable) principles.

fisheriesXplorer visualizes fishing activities across ICES ecoregions, integrating outputs from the Fisheries Overviews, including: 
    -Ecoregion overviews 
    -Landings and discards time-series 
    -Stock status: Summary; Trends; Lookup 

fisheriesXplorer will continue to be updated with new visualisations to further the impact of fisheries science.</gco:CharacterString>
