A GLASGOW start-up is leading a consortium of research partners in developing a satellite surveillance and data gathering system that provides an early warning system for problems on fish farms and other aquaculture sites.
The group has been awarded a £250,000 funding package to “revolutionise the collection, interpretation, and use of data on fish farms” with the development of the new digital platform that will enable actionable insights.
Led by R3-IoT, a fledgeling satellite communications business, the group will develop a software system that automatically captures large volumes of continuous sensor data across aquaculture sites securely in one place, where it can be processed, stored, and actioned.
