The New Zealand ownedcompanies are bringing together their hardware,communication and software solutions which enable effectiveand efficient fisheries management by harnessing new sensortechnologies.

The partnership between the twocompanies makes perfect sense, not only do our technologiesalign perfectly to create a world leading fisheriesmonitoring tool, but our total ethos and why we do what wedo are also very similar. For two New Zealand companies tobe able to do this life changing work together isamazing, says Chris Rodley, CEO and Founder SnapGroup

SnapGroup has been innovating in the vessel monitoring andsensor technology market since 2007. We are making vesselmonitoring while at sea more accessible with cost-effectivesolutions such as solar powered monitoring units. We are nowfocused on the future possibilities that cameras and edgecomputing will bring to the sustainable management offisheries, says Ali Kennard, PinPoint EarthLead.

With the new systems we are developing, wewill be able to use our technology not only to track vesselsand record what is happening, but using AI to identify redflags and send notifications instantly to those who need toknow, says Kennard.

The technology companies arelooking for pilot partners to implement their existingvessel monitoring solutions and enable them to prototype newtechnologies in a real-world setting.

Thispartnership allows us to offer a cost-effective yettransformative alternative to traditional vessel monitoringsystems. We want to be there for our customers as theycontinue to expand into the future of fisheriestechnology, says Fulcher.
