The NextOcean Store..y!

Discover the latest tools to support fisheries and aquaculture

Tuesday 13th December 2022

In the fourth webinar of the NextOcean series we showcased the NextOcean store and demonstrated how our services can be used to benefit fisheries and aquaculture.

The webinar began with David Pérez (Deimos) giving a hands-on demo of the online store, followed by Pedro Ribeiro (+Atlantic) talking about how we can use NextOcean services to ensure sustainable provenance and ecolabelling of fish. Marc Lucas (CLS)  then demonstrated the services from the aquaculture perspective with his presentation on "Assessing the threat of pollution: actionable intelligence for aquaculture".

Building solutions: co-designing  the next generation of fisheries and aquaculture services

Thursday 9th June 2022

In the third webinar of the NextOcean series we discuss co-designing the next generation of Earth Observation-based fisheries and aquaculture services to produce meaningful and relevant solutions to the problems the industry are facing today. It aims to inform about the concept of co-design and the different approaches that we can use to define and address the most pressing issues facing the fisheries and aquaculture industries where Earth Observation solutions could make a real difference.

Pedro Ribeiro from +ATLANTIC gives an insightful background on co-design principles and techniques and then Peter Miller from Plymouth Marine Laboratory, who leads the NextOcean work on co-design, describes how we have implemented co-design approaches within NextOcean and how to get involved with future activities.
