The fishing ground analysis and forecasting information system for Chinese oceanic fisheries

Abstract

Chinese oceanic fisheries have already covered seven main ocean area, including East Pacific, West Pacific, Middle Atlantic, North Pacific, Southeast Pacific, Southwest Atlantic and Indian Ocean. Based on the ocean environment data obtained from remote sensing and fishing historical data, the fishing ground analysis and forecasting information system has been constructed for Chinese oceanic fisheries. This paper briefly described the concerned remote sensing data, system architecture, client and models. Then a case application for tuna of the Indian Ocean was given at the end of the paper. The whole system has already in operation as making and delivering the forecasting information product every week.
