Improve monitoring and controlling of the activities of fishing vessels

What is it ?

Monitorfish is a fishing vessels monitoring software developped by the French administration for the french Fisheries Monitoring Center (FMC) - the Centre National de Surveillance des Pêches - and its partners.

Main features

  • Visualization of fishing vessels' real time positions (VMS)
  • Visualization of fishing vessels' declarative fishing activity data (ERS and FLUX)
  • Visualization of fishing vessels' historical controls and violations
  • Visualization of regulated fishing areas of the french and european regulations
  • Computation of fishing vessels' real time belonging to fleet segments as defined by the European Fishing Control Agency (EFCA) in its risk assessment methodology
  • Real time fraud detection alerts
  • Computation of fishing vessels' real time risk factor , a metric developed in the context of the Monitorfish project that aims to help FMC agents prioritize vessels to control based on all the above elements
  • Administration panel that allows admins to
    • Update regulation data : update authorized fishing areas / periods / gears...
    • Update the definitions of fleet segments
    • Stear control priorities by dynamically adjuting the control priority level of each fleet segment

Background

The motivation of the french FMC was to streamline its operations and better enforce fishing regulations by developing an integrated tool that makes all information relevant to the coordination of fishing control easily accessible. Furthermore, the tool was to act as a decision support system to better detect and prevent violations.

On the initiative of the french FMC, the project started in September 2020 as a challenge of the Entrepreneur d'Intérêt Général (EIG) program which helps initiate digital projects in the french administration. More information on the page of the EIG challenge.

After 10 months of incubation in the EIG program, the software is in production and used daily by the french FMC.

The project continues as a startup d'Etat in the beta.gouv.fr organization, with the objective to develop additional funtionalities.

Open data

In line with the philosophy of the EIG program, all data that can be opened is made publicly available. Opened datasets :
