Project description

Global Fishing Watch vessel lists. Very alpha.

https://travis-ci.com/GlobalFishingWatch/treniformis.svg?token=tu7qmzYG3ruJYdnto4aT&branch=master

Example

import treniformis
treniformis.get_annual_list_path('GFW/WKV/FISHING/KNOWN/2016')

Developing

$ git clone https://github.com/GlobalFishingWatch/treniformis
$ cd treniformis
$ pip install -e .\[all\]
$ py.test --cov treniformis --cov-report term-missing

Lists

Likely Fishing

Generated from a query of vessels identifying themselves as fishing in the shiptype_text field in the vessel identity messages in the type 5 and type 24 AIS messages. Details of the query can be found in Benthos #397. In the next round we will filter out some additional “unknown” vessel types and probably drop the threshold to include some vessels that almost always identify themselves as fishing.

Known Fishing

Based on public fishing registry records.

Combined Fishing

Produced by combining likely and known fishing lists and then removing sets of known non-fishing vessels (fish carriers, fishspotting helicopters, research vessels) along with short mmsi’s (less than 5 digits) and mmsi’s that will likely have a large number of spoofing vessels (111111111). See Benthos #397.
