全球渔业观察:为全球商业渔业带来透明度

Global Fishing Watch: Bringing Transparency to Global Commercial Fisheries

Wessley Merten, Adam Reyer, Jackie Savitz, John Amos, Paul Woods, Brian Sullivan

摘要:

在所有主要的工业化捕捞部门,由于能力过剩和渔业治理不合规而造成的过度捕捞,已导致许多全球鱼类种群的生物量下降。过度捕捞威胁着海洋生物多样性、全球粮食安全和守法渔民的生计。为了解决这个问题,全球渔业观察(GFW)的创建是为了利用计算机科学和大数据分析为全球渔业带来透明度。GFW是Oceana、SkyTruth和谷歌合作的产物,它使用自动识别系统(AIS)来分析海上船只的运动。AIS提供船只位置数据,GFW利用这一信息跟踪全球船只动向,并应用算法将船只行为分类为“捕捞”或“非捕捞”活动。现在,任何人只要有互联网连接,就可以监控世界各地可追踪的商业捕鱼活动的时间和地点。全世界数亿人依靠海洋为生,更多的人依靠海洋获取食物。总的来说,GFW的各种应用将有助于减少过度捕捞和非法捕捞,恢复海洋的丰富性,并通过更好地监测和管理我们的海洋资源来确保可持续性。

英文摘要:

Across all major industrial fishing sectors, overfishing due to overcapacity and lack of compliance in fishery governance has led to a decline in biomass of many global fish stocks. Overfishing threatens ocean biodiversity, global food security, and the livelihoods of law abiding fishermen. To address this issue, Global Fishing Watch (GFW) was created to bring transparency to global fisheries using computer science and big data analytics. A product of a partnership between Oceana, SkyTruth and Google, GFW uses the Automatic Identification System, or AIS, to analyze the movement of vessels at sea. AIS provides vessel location data, and GFW uses this information to track global vessel movement and apply algorithms to classify vessel behavior as "fishing" or "non-fishing" activity. Now publicly available, anyone with an internet connection can monitor when and where trackable commercial fishing appears to be occurring around the world. Hundreds of millions of people around the world depend on our ocean for their livelihoods, and many more rely on it for food. Collectively, the various applications of GFW will help reduce overfishing and illegal fishing, restore the ocean's abundance, and ensure sustainability through better monitoring and governance of our marine resources.
