Project Objectives & Methodology Tracking and analysing satellite data (AIS, VMS) to target hotspots of unregulated fishing activities in the high sea Gather information on vessels identity (including beneficial owner information if possible) and activities (authorisations, etc.) including point of landing If possible include informat
