A pilot in the North Sea Region will contribute fisheries-specific data, subsurface environmental data and surface environmental data from a weather station.
The large coverage of the Iliad platform will provide additional data to make steps towards models that improve the assessments of important stocks in the North Sea Region and help in making progress towards the construction of catch prediction models This pilot targets the Belgian fisheries sector and develops models to support fish stock management and fisheries productivity while minimising the environmental footprint through optimisation of fishing activity. `it will be evaluated by 5 vessels that are contributing in the local fisheries DT.
