- "description": "The night lights vessel detections layer, known as visible infrared imaging radiometer suite or VIIRS, shows vessels at sea that satellites have detected by the light they emit at night. Though not exclusively associated with fishing vessels, this activity layer is likely to show vessels associated with activities like squid fishing, which use bright lights and fish at night. <br/><br/>\n\nBased on the Suomi NPP satellite, the VIIRS sensor makes a pass across the entire planet at least once every night, detecting lights to provide at least one daily observation globally. Due to the orbit design of polar orbiting satellites, regions closer to polar will have more over-passes per day, while equatorial regions have only one over-pass daily. <br/><br/>\n\nBecause the vessels are detected solely based on light emission, we can detect individual vessels and even entire fishing fleets that may not broadcast identity information and so may not be represented elsewhere on the Global Fishing Watch map. Global Fishing Watch ingests boat detections processed from low light imaging data collected by the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) VIIRS. The boat detections are processed in near-real time by the <a href='https://eogdata.mines.edu/products/vbd/' target='_blank' rel=noopener'>Earth Observation Group</a> at the Colorado School of Mines. The data, known as VIIRS boat detections, picks up the presence of vessels, including those fishing using lights to attract catch or to conduct operations at night.Lights from fixed offshore infrastructure and other non-vessel sources are excluded. Read more about VIIRS night light vessel detections, and download the <a href='https://eogdata.mines.edu/products/vbd/' target='_blank' rel=noopener'>data</a>. <br/><br/>\n\nGlobal Fishing Watch has developed a sophisticated system to match available automatic identification system (AIS) data to respective night light vessel detections. This matching is done using a probabilistic model that determines AIS-message/VIIRS-detection pairs based on all available AIS records right before and right after the time the satellite VIIRS image was taken, as well as the probability of pairing a specific AIS message to any of the vessels appearing on that image. Using this information, Global Fishing Watch has added the ability to filter detections based on vessel type and gear type within the VIIRS activity layer. <br/><br/>\n\nMore than 85% of the detections are from vessels that lack AIS or vessel monitoring system (VMS) transponders. The global addition of the VIIRS layer enables you to rapidly filter the night light detections that either were matched or not with AIS where vessel identification is available. <br/><br/>\n\nRadiance indicates the brightness of the light source received by the VIIRS sensor. Radiance is impacted by the moon, clouds, and the angle of the vessel from the satellite. Two vessels with the same brightness, or light intensity, may have different radiance levels depending on the conditions. In general, vessels that are not actively fishing using light may have lower radiance levels. Exceptions should be considered when vessels are approaching a coastline. To further explore how vessel lights at night emit different radiance levels, the VIIRS activity layer can be filtered to specific ranges of interest associated with different human behaviours. <br/><br/>\n\nThose using night light detections data should consider the South Atlantic Anomaly (SAA), an area where the Earth's inner Van Allen radiation belt is at its lowest altitude, allowing more energetic particles from space to penetrate. When such particles hit the sensors on a satellite, this can create a false signal which might cause the algorithm to recognize it as a boat detection. A filtration algorithm has been applied but there may still be some mis-identification.",

+ "description": "VMS data for Indonesia is not currently available for the period from July 2020.\n\nVessel monitoring system (VMS) data provided by the Indonesian Government’s Ministry of Maritime Affairs and Fisheries. Data is collected using their VMS via satellites and terrestrial receivers, and contains a vessel identities, gear type, location, speed, direction and more. Global Fishing Watch analyzes this data using the same algorithms developed for automatic identification system (AIS) data to identify fishing activity and behaviors. The algorithm classifies each broadcast data point for these vessels as either apparently fishing or not fishing and shows the former on the Global Fishing Watch fishing activity heat map. VMS broadcasts data quite differently from AIS and may give different measures of completeness, accuracy and quality. Over time our algorithms will improve across all our broadcast data formats. Global Fishing Watch’s fishing presence algorithm for VMS, as for AIS, is a best effort to algorithmically identify “apparent fishing activity.” It is possible that some fishing activity is not identified, or that the heat map may show apparent fishing activity where fishing is not actually taking place. For these reasons, Global Fishing Watch qualifies the terms “fishing activity,” “fishing” or “fishing effort,” as “apparent,” rather than certain. Any/all Global Fishing Watch information about “apparent fishing activity” should be considered an estimate and must be relied upon solely at your own risk. Global Fishing Watch fishing presence algorithms are developed and tested using actual fishing event data collected by observers, combined with expert analysis of AIS vessel movement data resulting in the manual classification of thousands of known fishing events.

+ "description": "The night lights vessel detections layer, known as visible infrared imaging radiometer suite or VIIRS, shows vessels at sea that satellites have detected by the light they emit at night. Though not exclusively associated with fishing vessels, this activity layer is likely to show vessels associated with activities like squid fishing, which use bright lights and fish at night.The satellite makes a single over-pass across the entire planet every night, detecting lights not obscured by clouds and designed to give at least one observation globally every day. Because the vessels are detected solely based on light emission, we can detect individual vessels and even entire fishing fleets that are not broadcasting automatic identification system (AIS) and so are not represented in the AIS apparent fishing effort layer. Lights from fixed offshore infrastructure and other non-vessel sources are excluded. Global Fishing Watch ingests boat detections processed from low light imaging data collected by the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) VIIRS. The boat detections are processed in near-real time by NOAA’s Earth Observation Group, located in Boulder, Colorado. The data, known as VIIRS boat detections, picks up the presence of fishing vessels using lights to attract catch or to conduct operations at night. More than 85% of the detections are from vessels that lack AIS or Vessel Monitoring System (VMS) transponders. Due to the orbit design of polar orbiting satellites, regions closer to polar will have more over-passes per day, while equatorial regions have only one over-pass daily. Read more about this product, and download the data <a href=\"https://ngdc.noaa.gov/eog/viirs/download_boat.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here</a>.Those using night light detections data should acknowledge the South Atlantic Anomaly (SAA), an area where the Earth's inner Van Allen radiation belt is at its lowest altitude, allowing more energetic particles from space to penetrate. When such particles hit the sensors on a satellite, this can create a false signal which might cause the algorithm to recognize it as a boat presence. A filtration algorithm has been applied but there may still be some mis-identification. The GFW layer includes quality flags (QF), including a filter to show only detections which NOAA has classified as vessels (QF1)",

Through this process, marine plants capture about an equal amount of carbon as does photosynthesis by land vegetation. Changes in the amount of phytoplankton indicate the change in productivity of the oceans and provide a key ocean link for global climate change monitoring. Scientists use chlorophyll in modeling Earth's biogeochemical cycles such as the carbon cycle or the nitrogen cycle. Additionally, on short time scales, chlorophyll can be used to trace oceanographic currents, jets, and plumes. The 1 kilometer resolution and nearly daily global coverage of the MODIS data thus allows scientists to observe mesoscale oceanographic features in coastal and estuarine environments, which are of increasing importance in marine science studies.

AIS was developed for safety/collision-avoidance. Global Fishing Watch analyzes AIS data collected from vessels that our research has identified as known or possible commercial fishing vessels, and applies a fishing presence algorithm to determine “apparent fishing activity” based on changes in vessel speed and direction. The algorithm classifies each AIS broadcast data point for these vessels as either apparently fishing or not fishing and shows the former on the Global Fishing Watch fishing activity heat map. AIS data as broadcast may vary in completeness, accuracy and quality. Also, data collection by satellite or terrestrial receivers may introduce errors through missing or inaccurate data. Global Fishing Watch’s fishing presence algorithm is a best effort mathematically to identify “apparent fishing activity.” As a result, it is possible that some fishing activity is not identified as such by Global Fishing Watch; conversely, Global Fishing Watch may show apparent fishing activity where fishing is not actually taking place. For these reasons, Global Fishing Watch qualifies designations of vessel fishing activity, including synonyms of the term “fishing activity,” such as “fishing” or “fishing effort,” as “apparent,” rather than certain. Any/all Global Fishing Watch information about “apparent fishing activity” should be considered an estimate and must be relied upon solely at your own risk. Global Fishing Watch is taking steps to make sure fishing activity designations are as accurate as possible. Global Fishing Watch fishing presence algorithms are developed and tested using actual fishing event data collected by observers, combined with expert analysis of vessel movement data resulting in the manual classification of thousands of known fishing events. Global Fishing Watch also collaborates extensively with academic researchers through our research program to share fishing activity classification data and automated classification techniques.",

To further explore how vessel lights at night emit different radiance levels, the VIIRS activity layer can be filtered to specific ranges of interest associated with different human behaviours. <br/><br/>\n\nThose using night light detections data should consider the South Atlantic Anomaly (SAA), an area where the Earth's inner Van Allen radiation belt is at its lowest altitude, allowing more energetic particles from space to penetrate. When such particles hit the sensors on a satellite, this can create a false signal which might cause the algorithm to recognize it as a boat detection. A filtration algorithm has been applied but there may still be some mis-identification.",

Though not exclusively associated with fishing vessels, this activity layer is likely to show vessels associated with activities like squid fishing, which use bright lights and fish at night. <br/><br/>\n\nBased on the Suomi NPP satellite, the VIIRS sensor makes a pass across the entire planet at least once every night, detecting lights to provide at least one daily observation globally. Due to the orbit design of polar orbiting satellites, regions closer to polar will have more over-passes per day, while equatorial regions have only one over-pass daily. <br/><br/>\n\nBecause the vessels are detected solely based on light emission, we can detect individual vessels and even entire fishing fleets that may not broadcast identity information and so may not be represented elsewhere on the Global Fishing Watch map. Global Fishing Watch ingests boat detections processed from low light imaging data collected by the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) VIIRS. The boat detections are processed in near-real time by the <a href='https://eogdata.mines.edu/products/vbd/' target='_blank' rel=noopener'>Earth Observation Group</a> at the Colorado School of Mines. The data, known as VIIRS boat detections, picks up the presence of vessels, including those fishing using lights to attract catch or to conduct operations at night.Lights from fixed offshore infrastructure and other non-vessel sources are excluded. Read more about VIIRS night light vessel detections, and download the <a href='https://eogdata.mines.edu/products/vbd/' target='_blank' rel=noopener'>data</a>. <br/><br/>\n\nGlobal Fishing Watch has developed a sophisticated system to match available automatic identification system (AIS) data to respective night light vessel detections. This matching is done using a probabilistic model that determines AIS-message/VIIRS-detection pairs based on all available AIS records right before and right after the time the satellite VIIRS image was taken, as well as the probability of pairing a specific AIS message to any of the vessels appearing on that image. Using this information, Global Fishing Watch has added the ability to filter detections based on vessel type and gear type within the VIIRS activity layer. <br/><br/>\n\nMore than 85% of the detections are from vessels that lack AIS or vessel monitoring system (VMS) transponders. The global addition of the VIIRS layer enables you to rapidly filter the night light detections that either were matched or not with AIS where vessel identification is available. <br/><br/>\n\nRadiance indicates the brightness of the light source received by the VIIRS sensor. Radiance is impacted by the moon, clouds, and the angle of the vessel from the satellite. Two vessels with the same brightness, or light intensity, may have different radiance levels depending on the conditions. In general, vessels that are not actively fishing using light may have lower radiance levels. Exceptions should be considered when vessels are approaching a coastline.
