Chinese Pair Trawler N. Korea Waters Satellite Image

Caption

A satellite image of pair trawlers in North Korean waters. Grey ovals show where the neural net classifier identified pair trawlers. In this area, Global Fishing Watch received AIS messages from several vessels (only two shown). White lines connect their most recent AIS position to the estimated position during the time of the satellite image, based on extrapolating the vessel's speed and course. In white is the 9-digit Maritime Mobile Service Identity (MMSI) of each vessel.
