About

Defra Network eTendering Portal awarded a contract to Anchor Lab K/S for analysis of Electronic Monitoring footage from four fishing vessels (Kimberly Jo, Vesta, Radjel, and Julie Girl) captured between January 2021 and June 2022.

Data outputs were delivered as .CSV files and .JPEG images.

The contract value was £13,555.
