Abstract
The combination of an Abyssal Cloud Monitoring Platform and an Ocean Power Technologies (OPT) PB3 PowerBuoy® with a Maritime Domain Awareness Solution offers customers remote, autonomous, low- to zero-carbon solutions for Illegal, unreported, and unregulated (IUU) fishing prevention and supports active enforcement efforts to reduce the millions of tons of fish1 and associated tax revenues lost every year to illegal activities.
This joint solution can benefit various entities whose mission is to develop advanced technologies for the maritime domain. It is particularly applicable for defense and security, drug interdiction, illegal immigration prevention, offshore perimeter monitoring, and IUU fisheries mitigation. The combined solution utilizes state-of-the-art technology to enhance and augment existing maritime security infrastructure and increase capabilities and safety while reducing costs and carbon emissions.
