Rob Posted April 16, 2014 Report Share Posted April 16, 2014 These guys are interesting: http://www.ocearch.org "OCEARCH is a non-profit organization with a global reach for unprecedented research on great white sharks and other large apex predators. In a collaborative environment established by Founding Chairman and Expedition Leader Chris Fischer, OCEARCH enables leading researchers and institutions to generate previously unattainable data on the movement, biology and health of sharks to protect their future while enhancing public safety and education." They allows their data to be accessed live and the shark tracker in interesting. lysis the Great White was heading our way but went south. The mobile phone app is ace and easy to use. They have a great YouTube channel and have a great technique for catching then satellite tag, accelerometer tag and something in the belly cavity. http://www.youtube.com/user/OCEARCH Lydia 2000lbs being tagged: "http://youtu.be/-IJ0uLh9UAs" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bramble banker Posted April 17, 2014 Report Share Posted April 17, 2014 I've been following them on FB for a wile now and Ocearch have been allot of my attention really good work! I think it's a shame we as anglers do not have a similar or integrated system where by we could buy a kit, tag a shark say bigger than 200lb and log it on an online data base so that it is able to be tracked via gps the same as these guys. Does anyone know of such a thing suitable for us??? G Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
