Fisheries dependent data as a tool for real-time advice

Short description of the action

The SCAR FISH SWG has drafted a report aiming at raising awareness on the need to integrate and operationalise technological developments in fisheries monitoring -- a vital requirement to improve data collection during fishing operations and to allow the full use of such data as tools in support of fisheries management and advice. Recommendations are also provided for optimising the use of these technological advances to comply with extra data needs. The ultimate goal is to guide the R&I agenda towards the need of new studies on improving Fisheries Spatial Management. A follow-up workshop (by SCAR FISH, ICES, EFARO) will be organised in June 2023 on enabling mechanisms for science-industry partnerships to develop, implement and use data collected by the fishing industry to inform the ecosystem approach.
