INTRODUCTION
Fish can provide all the protein needs of humanity while still being a sustainable resource. Numer8’s Ofish product helps fisheries across the globe to become sustainable again by helping small-scale fishermen catch more in shallow waters, while controlling illegal fishing and overfishing by industrial deep sea trawlers. Numer8’s Ofish product has two components: a user-side app to be used by small-scale fishermen and fisherwomen and a central supervision system to help governments supervise fishing activity. The user-side app helps small-scale fisherfolks get the benefit of advanced space-based data and analysis to help locate potential fishing zones. This helps increase their yield and reduces the usage of diesel in engines to find their catch – thus reducing their costs and reducing pollution. Numer8’s Ofish central supervision system also helps government authorities oversee all fishing activity and locate potential illegal fishing and overfishing.
