It also tracks environmental conditions, fish populations, and migration patterns. This data allows fishers to make informed decisions, such as avoiding overfished areas or bycatch-prone zones, all while maximizing their efforts to ensure efficiency. The system also enables traceability, so fishers can ensure they’re adhering to regulations and sustainability standards.
