Empowering Ocean Insights: Global Fishing Watch Data Now in ArcGIS.
Global Fishing Watch data is now live in ArcGIS Online and the Living Atlas, bringing validated, real-time ocean intelligence directly into the hands of researchers and policymakers. This integration is a practical step toward measurable stewardship, and we're glad to see it. For those tracking enforcement efforts, our related piece on Maritime Interdictions shows how such tools support security at sea. Understanding drives protection, and this data ecosystem makes that understanding more accessible than ever.
Bridging Marine Biology and GIS: Mastering Ocean Geospatial Analysis
From orbit to ocean floor, the gap between marine biology and geospatial analysis has never felt wider, or more bridgeable. One environmental scientist in Colorado, trained in fisheries sustainability, now spends days wrangling Esri databases at 9,000 feet, building policy-focused GIS workflows while quietly missing the tide. That pivot, born from a 2020 job market that offered no harbor, is not a detour. It is an integrated data ecosystem waiting to be recalibrated.
Bridging Marine Biology & GIS: Skills for Ocean Science Analysis
From orbit to ocean floor, the gap between geospatial expertise and marine science is often wider than the Mariana Trench. One Colorado-based environmental scientist knows this firsthand: a marine biologist by training, they now spend their days wrangling Esri workflows and policy data at 9,000 feet, building a career in GIS while the tide of their original passion waits offshore. Their plan to bridge that divide, developing ocean-specific analysis methods using familiar tech, speaks to a practical truth.
