The Washington State Dungeness Crab FishVue LIME project validated electronic monitoring as a reliable tool for improving data accuracy, compliance, and fisheries management, supporting the modernization of coastal crab fisheries in partnership with Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife.
The pilot project will test a newly developed, low-cost EM system in combination with a tablet-based electronic logbook (E-Log) to determine its effectiveness as a tool to improve data quality and the timeliness of in-season management decisions, specifically related to the spatial distribution of crab gear to mitigate marine mammal interactions.
