Fish Aggregation Devices (FADs) - Hawaii

Description

Location of fish aggregation device (FAD) buoys within the Main Hawaiian Islands. Fishermen in Hawaii and other parts of the world have long known that tunas and other pelagic fishes are attracted to floating objects. Fishermen have benefited from this behavior by fishing around floating logs, nets, debris and other flotsam. Hawaii has capitalized on this phenomena by placing FADs in the waters surrounding the Hawaiian Islands. In these waters, schools of tunas and other important pelagic fishes such as dolphin-fish (mahi-mahi), wahoo (ono), and billfishes can be induced to congregate and remain for periods of time in an area so that fishers can easily locate them. Thus, the FADs are used to "attract" and "hold" pelagic fishes in areas to enhance fishing. NOTE: Please do not rely on these buoys to check your position. Most buoys have only been located to the nearest 0.1 minute (6 seconds). In addition, each buoy has a watch circle that can be as much as 1 mile in diameter.

52 Open Geospatial Consortium Web Map Service (WMS). Supported WMS versions include 1.1.1 and 1.3.0. Supported map formats include AtomPub, GeoRSS, GeoTIFF, GIF, JPEG, KML/KMZ, PDF, PNG, SVG, and TIFF. Supported info formats include GeoJSON, GeoJSON-P, GML, HTML, and plain text. http://geo.pacioos.hawaii.edu/geoserver/PACIOOS/hi_dar_all_fads/ows?service=WMS&version=1.3.0&request=GetCapabilities

52 Open Geospatial Consortium Web Map Service - Cached (WMS-C). Use of WMS-C is similar to traditional WMS but with the addition of the "tiled=true" parameter, which triggers GeoServer to pull map tiles from GeoWebCache if they have been previously generated. This can dramatically improve performance, especially for larger datasets. Supported map formats include JPEG and PNG. Supported info formats include GeoJSON, GML, HTML, and plain text. http://geo.pacioos.hawaii.edu/geoserver/PACIOOS/gwc/service/wms?service=WMS&version=1.1.1&request=GetCapabilities&tiled=true
