Happy #WorldOceanDay! Celebrating Parcs de Noé's success in fighting IUU fishing in Congo's Conkouati-Douli Park. Leveraging AI-powered detects with #Skylight right in EarthRanger, another tool also from Allen Institute for AI (AI2), they're making interdictions and transforming into a model for tech-driven conservation.

In case you missed our news this past week: Real-time optical imagery is now available in #Skylight! "Skylight’s vessel detection data from the European Space Agency's Sentinel-2 imagery has been a game-changer. It is a significant time-saver to have vessel detections automatically flagged for investigation." - Maritime advisor, Charlie Brown. Use it today and let us know what you think!

Partnering with grad students to help protect the ocean. Here's how our collaboration with Bren School of Environmental Science & Management - University of California, Santa Barbara yielded critical insights into the urgency of tackling IUU fishing as well as the development of a new decision-making tool. https://bit.ly/4bG9kSb Shout out to Eleanor Thomas, Chloe Swick, Isabella Rothenberg, Ashley Cooper, and Sydney Mayes for their tireless work! /// #BetterTogether #StopIUU #SaveTheOcean

First-of-its-kind and in near real-time. Maritime analysts and conservationists have long aspired to locate unreported vessels from space using optical imagery (1st picture). Now, that aspiration is a reality through Skylight's new AI-powered Sentinel-2 detections (swipe right)! As one user said, "Skylight’s vessel detection data from Sentinel-2 imagery has been a game-changer. It's a significant time-saver to have vessel detections automatically flagged for investigation." And so analysts can confirm the AI model's work for themselves, we've made every detection linked to a corresponding raw image in Sentinel hub (last image).

It is deeply inspiring to see these incredible students focus their energy and talents on addressing a major issue like illegal fishing. The Skylight team at Allen Institute for AI (AI2) is pleased to have supported their work and we wish them all best as they launch their careers.

To restore our ocean, Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) need to play a vital role. As we celebrate #EarthDay, watch how the Bahamas are leveraging innovative public-private partnerships with our friends at WildAid and The Nature Conservancy and AI through #Skylight to protect these areas. Watch to learn more. https://lnkd.in/gjWrRZJW #Tech4Good #OceanConservation
