SAFARI initiative launched

SAFARI (Societal Applications in Fisheries and Aquaculture using Remotely-Sensed Imagery), the global initiative to co-ordinate activities on global fisheries and aquaculture research and management using satellite remote sensing imagery, was established in 2007, and in due course entered into scientific interactions with ChloroGIN, IOCCG, POGO and GEO. Initially a task within the GEO Work Plan, it was one of the key ocean elements within GEO that were brought together under the umbrella of the GEO “Oceans and Society: the Blue Planet” initiative in 2012.
