The US West Coast Groundfish electronic monitoring program uses an exempted permit to support multiple fleets with cost-effective at-sea catch monitoring, enabling regulatory compliance and efficient data processing in coordination with the Pacific States Marine Fisheries Commission.
The Alaska Fixed Gear electronic monitoring program supports cooperative research and regulated fisheries management by enabling hook-and-line and trap vessels to use EM for catch, discard, and compliance monitoring, with equipment and field support provided by Archipelago.
The California Box Crab electronic monitoring pilot assesses the commercial viability of an experimental fishery by using EM in place of at-sea observers, supporting data collection and oversight under an exempted permit administered by the California Department of Fish and Wildlife.
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.
South Georgia’s longline fisheries monitoring program uses mandatory electronic monitoring to deliver consistent data on compliance, fishing effort, and catch composition, supporting effective fisheries oversight through licence requirements established by the Government of South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands.

The US Alaska Pollock Trawl electronic monitoring program evaluates EM as a cost-effective alternative to at-sea observers, improving compliance monitoring and data quality for pollock fisheries, with data processing coordinated by the Pacific States Marine Fisheries Commission.
Archipelago introduces LIME, a low-cost electronic monitoring device that reduces barriers to fisheries data collection by combining entry-level monitoring capabilities with integrated vessel tracking and security, supporting broader adoption of electronic monitoring and regulatory compliance.
A group of Sitka and Homer longliners hope to demonstrate this season that electronic monitoring can collect most of the data needed for managing the hook and line fisheries.
The pilot project is part of an ongoing effort by the Alaska Longline Fishermen’s Association and other longline groups to integrate electronic monitoring as an alternative to having observers aboard boats that longline for sablefish and halibut.
