Roadshow Webinar: Global Fish Tracking System (GFTS)
June 19 @ 10:00 am - 11:00 am CEST
Join us for a webinar about the Global Fish Tracking ServiceRegular provision of technological capabilities, resources, More (GFTS) and learn how to effectively use it. This webinar is geared towards scientists working with biologging data and interested in performing fish track reconstruction. We will explore the two key components of our integrated system:
The first component focuses on modeling. We’ve developed a Jupyter Hub-based modeling environment designed for running fish track reconstruction algorithms in a hosted and scalable setting. This pangeo-based infrastructure includes various features, notably the pangeo-fish open-source modeling framework. We’ll demonstrate how to conduct fish track reconstruction using pangeo-fish within the GFTS infrastructure.
The second component covers making data accessible to a wider audience through our decision support tool. We’ve created a data processing pipeline that converts output into web-friendly formats, seamlessly integrating with our graphical user interface, accessible online via the DestinE platform.
About GFTS
GFTS revolutionizes ocean protection and fisheries management by streamlining the analysis and visualization of fish biologging data.
Scientists can leverage GFTS to convert raw biologging data into fish tracks within a scalable environment. Individual tracks and group-level habitat maps can be generated and smoothly integrated into the GFTS visualization tool. Future ocean conditions in these habitats are computed using the DestinE Climate Adaptation Digital Twin.
Policy makers gain clear visualization of critical fish habitats and migration patterns, enabling evidence-based decisions on marine protected areas and sustainable fishing quotas without requiring technical expertise.
If you are a scientist with biologging data, we encourage you to attend the webinar and connect with us to facilitate your onboarding.
