Goa to Deploy Drones to Curb Illegal Fishing in Coastal Area

The state of Goa is getting ready to implement drone-based aerial surveillance along its coastline in a major step to strengthen maritime security and improve oversight of fishing operations. The goal of this contemporary project is to detect illicit or unapproved fishing operations and guarantee improved management of marine resources.

Drone monitoring has already undergone a successful trial operation, opening the door for full-scale deployment in the upcoming months. The project is being developed in collaboration with a seasoned organization that has experience carrying out comparable coastal monitoring operations in Maharashtra.

In order to enable authorities to promptly identify any suspicious or unregulated activity at sea, this initiative will deploy unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) to patrol the coastal belt and collect real-time aerial data. These cutting-edge systems will make it possible to remotely monitor fishing vessels, giving regulatory agencies real-time images and data analytics.

The Department of Fisheries hopes to combat illegal trawling and overfishing while encouraging sustainable fishing methods among nearby fishing communities by utilizing drone technology. Additionally, the drones will help with marine safety by detecting possible distress situations and facilitating quick action when necessary.

Drone integration into Goa’s coastal surveillance signifies a move toward technology-driven marine governance, where enforcement becomes more accurate, effective, and informed by data. Stakeholders in the fisheries industry have already responded favorably to the initiative, seeing it as a positive step in preserving marine biodiversity and livelihoods.

When this model is fully functional, it could be used as a model for other coastal states that want to use UAV-based monitoring to update their fisheries regulation infrastructure.
