Biography
We are a Canadian social enterprise focused on the design and delivery of efficient and effective electronic fisheries monitoring programs. We provide all the hardware, software and storage technology needed to capture, analyze, delivery and store fisheries data. We equip fishing vessels with customized, robust data capture hardware, that ranges from small solar-powered wireless satellite vessel tracking units to complete image capture systems that include cameras with 360 degree pan, tilt, and zoom capabilities that take high-definition video and on-board systems that can remotely transmit data to shore. Our technology also includes the integration of Artificial Intelligence in both data capture and analysis software that reduces data review and storage requirements. We also build and manage databases in trust for fishing fleets. Along with our technology offerings, we also provide complete program design and delivery services that are focused on creating data access for fishermen as well as regulatory data delivery to fisheries managers. We design our programs so that the value of fisheries data can be realized by not just closed door regulators but also by individual fishermen for business and marketing, by fishing fleets for improved dialogue with fisheries managers and by scientists for better ecosystem knowledge.
