FISHING WITH SATELLITES–ILLEGAL, UNREPORTED, UNREGULATED (Aerospace Corp), Jan 6, 2022, virtual, 1:00 pm ET

The Aerospace Corporation will hold its next Space Policy Show webinar on January 6, 2022 at 1:00 pm ET (the website says 10:00 am without mentioning the time zone, but presumably that is Pacific Time since it also confirms that the regular time slot for this program is 1:00 pm Eastern).

The topic is “Fishing with Satellites–Illegal, Unreported, Unregulated.”  More information is on the event’s website, which says:

1 in 5 fish that land on a dinner plate in America is a result of illegal fishing. How do satellites identify illegal, unreported, and unregulated (IUU) fishing around the globe? What remote sensing data can be combined to better understand the extent of illegal fishing beyond what shipboard trackers do? Space-based capabilities have shed light on the regions in most danger of IUU fishing.  In this episode we talk to experts William Cromarty (Spire Global, Inc.) and Dr. Dee Pack (Aerospace) about this and the challenges that remain in terms of policy, technology and business.
