OCEAN DATA NETWORK

We are leading the Fishing Vessel Ocean Observing Network (FVON), which is the international coordinating group dedicated to advancing fishing vessel based ocean observing. FVON is an endorsed project by the UN Decade of Ocean Science and Sustainable Development under the GOOS CoastPredict program. We are aiming to become a network within the Global Ocean Observing System so that fishing vessel based ocean observations can be a globally accepted tool, with the mission of becoming the coastal complement to the Argo program.
