“ Every year, Illegal, Unreported and Unregulated (IUU) fishing strips an estimated 11–26 million tonnes of fish from the oceans, contributing to more than $10 billion in economic losses. ”
Exposing dark vessels involved in IUU fishing beyond the sight of patrols.
All Weather Imaging
Monitor fishing activity through clouds, storms, and darkness using Synthetic Aperture Radar.
SAR+AIS Data Fusion
Correlate SAR detections with AIS broadcasts to identify suspicious vessels, operating without transmissions.
Source Attribution
Fuse SAR imagery with AIS and vessel intelligence to identify the exact vessel responsible for illegal activity.
Fishing Pattern Analysis
Identify loitering, rendezvous events, transshipment activity, and fishing inside restricted waters.
High Revisit Monitoring
Track suspicious vessels continuously instead of relying on isolated snapshots in time, enabling persistent maritime awareness.
Wide Area Coverage
Monitor vast fishing grounds and EEZs without gaps in surveillance coverage across large maritime regions.
Illegal (IUU) Fishing: What Is It And How To Detect It
Learn how IUU Fishing which causes losses estimated between $10–23.5 billion can be detected and combated using SAR satellites.
