Commercial fishing operations present certain real-world challenges absent in terrestrial based agriculture. Unforgiving marine environments, ambiguous territorial boundaries, and the sheer remoteness of fishing locales require IoT technologies capable of delivering above par reliability, robustness, and functionality.
AssetLink geofences keep your crew safe by alerting them when venturing into contested territorial waters or protected fishing grounds, and panic button alerts save lives in emergency situations. GPS also helps fleet operators reduce fuel costs and time at sea. AssetLink IoT and predictive maintenance enable you to avoid repair costs and down time by proactively optimizing ship equipment such as diesel engines, generators, pumps and other high value assets. We provide you with the edge intelligence you need to keep your crew safe, improve fleet productivity, and uncover deep insights for better decision making.
IoT in Fishing Fleets
The AssetPack is a highly versatile equipment tracking and sensor monitoring solution, designed for frequent two-way communication with unpowered assets. Implemented stand-alone or as part of a distributed network of data collection points, AssetPack sensor interfaces provide the actionable intelligence and situational awareness needed for fishing operations of any size or complexity.
Safeguard crew and vessels, proactively, with real time access to GPS location and asset monitoring data. Available in satellite, cellular, or hybrid options, the solution is fully self-contained, waterproof, dustproof, ruggedized for use in unforgiving marine environments. In addition to its track & trace capabilities, the solution can be easily configured to monitor a wide range metrics via on-board sensor agnostic analog and digital inputs. This makes monitoring performance and operating status of aquaculture equipment, simple and intuitive.
Whether adopting the latest in predictive maintenance technologies, using geofences to guide your fleet in and out of disputed waters, or proactively monitoring fuel usage, AssetLink offers the real world solutions for today’s challenges while aligning your fleet for the demands of tomorrow.
