Resources for Electronic Monitoring and Reporting & Observer Coverage
Electronic monitoring (EM), electronic reporting (ER), and observer coverage are critical tools for the Monitoring, Control and Surveillance (MCS) of vessel activities in tuna fisheries.
ISSF has identified these three areas as priorities for the tuna Regional Fisheries Management Organizations (RFMOs).
To assist RFMOs in developing management measures to improve tuna fishery sustainability — and to guide seafood companies and vessels in following best practices — we have compiled this list of related downloadable ISSF resources.
Learn more about electronic monitoring, and see ISSF conservation measures related to EM/ER and observer coverage.
