Aquaculture management

Viasat’s Aquaculture Management solutions provide the tools you need to monitor and remotely control conditions at your fisheries to produce optimum yields, from anywhere in the world. 

The challenge

Managing fisheries is no easy task. Small changes in water quality can be the difference between a successful harvest or a bad one. Even today, isolated, far-flung locations and sudden changes to environmental conditions can make it difficult to gain complete visibility over your farms. Help is at hand. We’re changing how you can monitor your fisheries by delivering the connectivity needed to improve yields, reduce costs, and increase sustainability. 

Our solution

We simplify remote fisheries management by providing global connectivity for real-time monitoring of key environmental metrics. Collaborating with partners worldwide, we deliver timely alerts on conditions impacting growth and yield.

Built to your requirements, our solution displays real-time readings based on dissolved oxygen, pH, ammonia, temperature, and salinity levels. The intuitive application helps you make informed decisions faster than ever. Plus, depending on the capability of your equipment, remote control of oxygenation and other management systems can be integrated. 

Connectivity services

To ensure you can keep collecting data, our partners connect your existing or new sensors using the best combination of Long Range Wide Area Network (LoRaWAN), IoT Nano, and IoT Pro services at the edge. We manage the transfer of data from the farm to a cloud-based dashboard via our highly reliable L-band network, which IoT Nano and IoT Pro work on. Both of these enable two-way communications, allowing monitoring and control.
