Buoy Monitoring and Tracking Data buoys have become a very important tool in oceanographic information gathering as well as fishing. The data provided by these fishing buoys are very vital to the fishing operations as well as marine environment protection. Buoys are the eyes and ears of fishing vessels and purse seiners. BenIT Consult takes the reserved pleasure of analyzing data from buoys, providing effective and efficient decision-making parameters for all sea-going vessels and maritime buoys in some of the most remote areas of the world. Fish Aggregating Devices (FAD) are also recoverable through effective tracking and monitoring and this helps in environmental protection. Management is across platforms i.e. all and any buoy manufacturer can be managed be it ZNIBAL, SATLINK, IRIS and MARINE INSTRUMENT. Monitoring & Tracking Buoys for Optimized Fishing and Fuel Consumption Optimize fishing operations by tracking the location of Fish Aggregating Devices reduced fishing duration. Reduce operational cost (fuel consumption and transmission cost) by monitoring and deactivating inactive buoys as well as buoys on land. Locate Buoy Position and Environmental Protection Track buoys to obtain their immediate GPS location for FAD cleaning and repairs. Enable buoy recovery as per transmission of last position Monitor Buoys Remotely for Efficient Reporting and Effective Decision Making Flag out-of-the-ordinary events through exception-based reporting. VMS(Vessel Monitoring System) Data Analysis A fishing vessel monitoring program for fisheries surveillance in which fishing trip data (positions and activity) is used as a key part to monitor vessels in territorial waters of a country or a sub division of a country (Exclusive Economic Zones). This can be used to improve the management and sustainability of the marine environment through ensuring proper fishing practices and the prevention of illegal fishing and hence protecting the livelihood of fishermen. Fisheries Management Monitor the activates/movement of VMS equipped vessels with respect to restricted fishing areas. A vessel may have license to fish, transit through or may not be allowed in the area. Catch Reporting Reporting of catch locations, catch size and catch species all form a comprehensive catch report data base that can be used to effectively manage fishing activity and improve sustainability. Fisheries Research and Analysis The combination of fishing data (catch data) and tracking data can aid in fishing operations. This brings a reduction in operational cost as historical data can be used to improve upon fishing. Safety VMS data can be used in search and rescue(SAR). If all else should fail the VMS is the best bet for search and rescue as they seem to have very short transmission intervals. VMS equipment may not float or start transmitting upon salt water detection. Global Maritime Distress Safety Systems. Emergency Position Indicating Radio Beacons (EPIRB) Enforcement VMS data in combination with logbook data scan be used to check IUU and other illegal fishing habits.
