EU/UK joint request for development of additional SmartDots software modules

The additional SmartDots software modules for maturity staging, egg and larvae identification have been developed to support improved quality assurance for biological parameters as input for stock assessment. The new modules have been developed in line with the pre-existing SmartDots age-reading module. Additional features and functionalities in the age-reading module have also been implemented to improve the user experience, and to allow for the streamlining of features across the various modules. Updates to the web application and web API ensure the data flow between modules and corresponding database are maintained. All developments have been based on user feedback.
