Video monitoring trial Avro Chieftain 2005 an interim report

In May and June of 2005 there was a trial of an Archipelago Marine Research video monitoring system within 58.5.2. The initial results from the monitoring of the hauling are optimistic but need to be fully analysed against the observer data that was generated for the same period. There is confidence that the trial achieved the objectives required of monitoring the hauling but the results of monitoring the setting operation were unsatisfactory due to operational and technical limitations of the system that was deployed.
