JCU Spawning Potential app development (Old ID 27727)

Role

Chief Investigator

Description

The central biological measure of success for the “Community- Based Sustainable Development in Solomon Island and PNG Coastal Communities” projects are trends in the Spawning Potential Ratio (SPR) of key target species. This Project seeks to refine the Spawning Potential Survey (SPS) App (JCU FISH) to include spatial reporting tools that can be utilised by survey participants to monitor spatial and temporal trends in SPR. This project extends from an earlier “proof of concept” project funded by the WWF Ocean Practice where the potential for automatic identification and measurement of target species from a single image was realised.
