DAT2023-05: Adding set net coverage from the Proof-of-Concept electronic monitoring programme to the Central Observer Database

MPI is looking for a provider to add set net coverage from the Proof-of-Concept electronic monitoring programme to the Central Observer Database and the Protected Species Capture database. This project is to build monitoring levels by utilising data from the current Proof-of-Concept coverage of the set net fishery along the West Coast North Island (WCNI) and integrating these into the Protected Species Capture database and to realise the NPOA Seabirds 2020 objective “observations and monitoring methods are research, developed and implemented across all sectors”.
