Monitoring the evolution of fisheries management
To provide further support to groups progressing machine learning and automatic analysis, GMRI partnered with CVision AI to publish Electronic Monitoring: Best Practices for Automation, a first-of-its-kind Electronic Monitoring guidance document that describes best practices for designing EM systems and programs suited for automated or semi-automated video analysis. This document presents a broad …

EM trials and fully implemented programs on world map. Figure courtesy of van Helmond et al. 2019. Abstract Since the beginning of the 21st century, electronic monitoring (EM) has emerged as a cost‐efficient supplement to existing catch monitoring programmes in fisheries. An EM system consists of various activity sensors and cameras positioned on vessels to remotely record fishing activity …

Abstract: As human populations have more than doubled since 1960, pressure on wild fish stocks has increased dramatically. This Article argues that the establishment of an electronic reporting and monitoring regime in U.S. fisheries is both necessary to ensure compliance with statutory imperatives to manage them according to best available science, and essential for continued long-term viability …

The European Landing Obligation. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-03308-8_18
Tools and Technologies for the Monitoring, Control and Surveillance of Unwanted Catches Abstract: A key requirement for the successful implementation of the Landing Obligation is the need to monitor and regulate unwanted catches at sea. This issue is particularly challenging because of the large number of vessels and trips that need to be monitored and the remoteness of vessels at sea. Several …
