Electronic Monitoring: A Key Tool for Global Fisheries

PEW Charitable Trust
2019

Electronic Monitoring (EM) can generate high-quality, cost-effective vessels monitoring data. Implementing a well-designed EM program that collects and then analyzes data on a fleet’s catch, fishing effort, and discards will help RFMOs gauge the status of fish stocks and make appropriate decisions for managing them, such as adopting sustainable harvest strategies, and create stronger enforcement tools.

This document highlights the benefits of electronic monitoring in fishing vessels and the types of electronic monitoring technology that can be used on fishing vessels to maximize compliance and generate the required data to make informed decisions regarding fish stock management and fishing activities.
