Published purpose
This study will expand on training provided by the Nunavut Community Aquatic Monitoring Program (NCAMP) to include the use of In Reach satellite devices and a specially designed "Fishery Assessment App" that will assist in the monitoring, reporting and assessment of subsistence and commercial fisheries. This information will be automatically uploaded on to a Nunavut Fishery Atlas that can be accessed by web browser. The project aims to enhance local capacity in biomonitoring, data stewardship, and management for empowered participation in co-management and better preparation for the impacts of climate change on food availability, wildlife migration, and sustainable harvesting.
