The Global Fisheries Atlas, one of Blue-Cloud's Virtual Labs, has been featured in an article by Science|Business. The publication highlights how the virtual lab is contributing to the sustainable management of marine resources by integrating diverse datasets and analytical capabilities.

Developed within the Blue-Cloud framework, the Global Fisheries Atlas provides fisheries scientists, policymakers, and stakeholders with access to harmonised data, allowing for improved monitoring and decision-making. As the Science|Business article notes, this Virtual Lab is supporting evidence-based approaches to fisheries management, addressing challenges related to overfishing and environmental sustainability.

“We need the Global Fisheries Atlas because we need to feed the world,” Science|Business quotes Julien Barde, IT Research Engineer at IRD and Leader of the Global Fisheries Atlas VLab. In Blue-Cloud, the Global Fisheries Atlas VLab provides a single and FAIR-compliant entry point for end users to discover, access and understand the state of stocks and fisheries worldwide.
