Global Fishing Watch is an independent, international nonprofit organization. It started by a website launched in September 2016 by Google in partnership with Oceana and SkyTruth "to provide the world’s first global view of commercial fishing activities." At any moment, 200,000 vessels are publicizing their locations via the Automatic Identification System (AIS).[1]

The technology was made publicly available at the 2016 US State Department's Our Oceans Conference in Washington, DC. The project was partly financed by the Leonardo DiCaprio Foundation[4] and the Bertarelli Foundation.[5] In June 2017, almost a year after being officially launched at the Our Ocean Conference, Global Fishing Watch was established as an independent, international nonprofit organization.[6]
