Vessel Tracking: Making the Invisible Visible

Vessel Tracking: Making the Invisible Visible

🌊 75 percent of industrial fishing vessels are not publicly tracked. That means that much of what happens at sea eludes monitoring efforts and oversight. Without mandated vessel tracking, authorities face major challenges in detecting suspicious activity at sea and in enforcing regulations and combating illegal fishing. Public vessel tracking can help strengthen accountability, improve fisheries management and support a healthier ocean for future generations. Because we cannot protect what we cannot see. 🔗 Learn more about Global Fishing Watch’s work to advance public vessel tracking globally: https://bit.ly/VT-Animation-EN-YT #VesselTracking #IllegalFishing #OceanGovernance #Transparency #OceanConservation
