Strengthening Marine Protected Area Surveillance

National and international institutions, along with Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs), face significant challenges in maritime surveillance, particularly in detecting and preventing illegal activities such as overfishing and ocean dumping. With advanced RF detection technology, Unseenlabs provides NGOs with critical intelligence to enhance monitoring efforts, enforce conservation policies, and protect Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) from unlawful exploitation.

Protecting the World’s Oceans

The Battle Against Illegal Activities

With Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) covering about 2.9% of the world’s oceans, these critical zones play a key role in protecting endangered ecosystems and combating IUU fishing.

However, their vast and remote nature makes enforcement challenging, leaving them vulnerable to illegal activities. Addressing these detection gaps is essential to enhancing marine conservation efforts and safeguarding ocean biodiversity.
