  abstract = {{A}ssessing the status of tuna and tuna-like populations for providing management advice requires the analysis of multiple data sets collected by the contracting parties and cooperating non-contracting parties of {T}una {R}egional {F}isheries {M}anagement {O}rganizations (t{RFMO}s) {C}onventions. {D}ata on the magnitude and composition of landings, discards, and  sh- ing eort are currently managed at basin scale by the {S}ecretariats of the t{RFMO}s. {C}onsequently, data formats and reference codes have evolved rather independently despite some links with the {FAO} {C}oordinating {W}ork- ing {P}arty on {F}ishery {S}tatistics. {W}e have developed a global harmonized database for tuna  sheries data by collating the public domain datasets (total catch, monthly-spatially aggregated catch and eort, and catch at size) from {IOTC}, {ICCAT}, {IATTC} and {WCPFC}. {T}he database currently covers the period 1919-2014 and is freely accessible online along with a set of open source codes to handle the data, i.e. transform the data formats, load the standardized data into the database, extract data and compute a suite of indicators (e.g. global maps of catch). {T}he database along with the codes represent the "toolbox".{I}n a previous note ([{T}aconet et al.]), we have described the general method- ological approach used for the collation and formatting of the data, as well as the bene ts of using standardized data formats and code lists for scien- ti c research and  sheries management. {I}n this note, we present the codes available in the toolbox, the services that they oer and how users can access them through various applications. {W}e argue that these methods are likely to bring visibility to the tuna {RFMO}s public domain datasets, as well as to facilitate their use. {O}verall, we showcase how the variety of available services and applications enables to reach dierent communities of users that might be interested in accessing tuna fisheries data for various uses and purposes.},
