Description

The invention relates to the field of monitoring the activity of fishing vessels and the traceability of fish products using space navigation and communication systems.

The most important problem of global and national fisheries is countering illegal, unreported and unregulated (IUU) fishing of aquatic biological resources (WBR), which adversely affects marine ecosystems and damages the economies of coastal states. Another problem related to counteracting IUU fishing is the identification of illegal entry of ABR and products made from them (fish products) into commercial circulation. There is also the problem of providing the necessary conditions for the transportation and storage of VBR and fish products, under which their quality is maintained. The present invention is directed to solving these problems.

Regulations in force in Russia and a number of countries establish the obligatory equipment of fishing vessels with technical means that ensure the regular transmission of position data to the monitoring center. In Russia, there is an industry-specific system for monitoring aquatic biological resources, monitoring and controlling the fishing activities of vessels (OSM) of the Federal Agency for Fisheries (Rosrybolovstvo). Vessels of the fishing fleet, controlled by the OCM, must be equipped with special equipment - technical means of control (TSK), which, at regular intervals, but at least once every two hours, must transmit the location coordinates, speed and heading of the vessel via a satellite communication channel to the monitoring center .

In many fishing countries, Vessel Monitoring Systems (VMS) are actively used, the basic function of which is to control the movement of the vessel, taking into account areas prohibited for fishing activities.

Known monitoring system for fishing vessels company Cosmos Business Systems (Greece). This VMS collects information about vessels in real time, in particular: location, speed, ID, battery status, device status.

Known system for monitoring fishing vessels McMurdo V-Link VMS, which allows government agencies to monitor and track vessels via satellites operating within regulated exclusive economic zones. The ship terminal of the system transmits the vessel identifier, its position, heading and speed to the authorized monitoring center, and also contains an internal memory that provides storage of monitoring data for 90 days.

The main disadvantage of both systems is their limited functionality: the fishing monitoring center receives mainly the navigation parameters of controlled fishing vessels, which can only indirectly indicate that the vessel is mining WBR or is transshipping WBR or fish products to another vessel.

Some VMS contain an electronic fishery log (EJL), with the help of which, as part of the ship's daily reports (SDR), reports on the catch made by the WBR are generated and transmitted. For example, ELS is implemented in the OSM of the Federal Agency for Fishery (Russia) and in the Vessel Tracking Service system (England). The systems use satellite communications technology and automatically send reports and vessel positions to the appropriate fisheries regulators. However, the presence of ELS functions in the VMS does not guarantee the reliability of reports on the results of the fishery, since these data are subjective, since they are formed and certified by the responsible person (captain) by means of a digital signature.

Known navigation and information system for monitoring sea and river vessels and on-board navigation and communication system (utility model patent RU 117196, published 20.06.2012). The navigation and information system involves equipping fishing vessels with specialized navigation and communication systems. The system provides advanced functions for collecting, processing and storing data related to the implementation of fishing. In the system, by means of on-board navigation and communication systems, information is collected about the navigation parameters (position coordinates, speed, heading) of the vessel, information from the interfaced equipment (status sensors of various ship systems and mechanisms), video cameras, etc., as well as the accumulation of this information in non-volatile memory (“black box”) and its transfer to the monitoring center via satellite and/or terrestrial communication channels.

Known monitoring system for fishing vessels BlueTraker company EMA Group (Slovenia). In the system terminal, significant emphasis is placed on the high-level integration of mechanical, electrical and electromagnetic functions in one housing to ensure security and protection against fraud and data substitution. The most notable security and safety features are the integrated approach to tamper detection, antenna blocking, seals and a unique serial number engraved on the case, as well as device status indication. A wide variety of interfaces provide interaction with various ship sensors that are subject to remote control from the fishery monitoring center. This allows the authorized bodies to control the production processes on the ship.

The disadvantages of the navigation and information system from the patent RU 117196, and the BlueTraker system are the lack of integrated control of the catch, processing and accounting of WBR and fish products.

The main drawback of the OSM of the Federal Agency for Fishery and many other existing systems for monitoring fishing vessels is the lack of reliable data on the operation of fishing gear, on the actual volume of the WBR catch and production, which reduces the effectiveness of these systems in terms of counteracting IUU fishing.

An integrated approach to the problems described above is presented in the patent for invention RU 2 624 361, which considers a method for controlling the fishing of aquatic biological resources, a monitoring navigation and communication complex of a fishing vessel and a data processing center for implementing the method. Navigation data and information from video monitoring equipment on board fishing vessels is recorded in the ELS and in non-volatile memory (“black box”), and is also transmitted via satellite communications and / or using land mobile communications of the GSM, WiFi or WiMax standard (in the coastal zone ) to the cloud environment, from where the information is sent to the center for receiving, processing and disseminating information of the fishery monitoring system. In the method, control information characterizing the progress of the FBR fishing and coming from a plurality of monitoring navigation and communication complexes of fishing vessels is received by a pre-formed cloud environment, including a data processing center. Moreover, control commands and / or information requests are transmitted in relation to the specified control information from this cloud environment, with the possibility of dynamic change by means of this cloud environment of the composition of data processing centers, the list of types of control information generated from data on the fishing vessel, its movement and production activities on it, details of fishing permission, identifiers of data corruption or uncertainty and/or communication systems used. With the proposed method, an increase in the reliability of monitoring data is achieved. At the same time, the proposed method does not provide transparency of the life cycle of extracted ABRs, that is, it does not solve the complex problem of counteracting IUU fishing and identifying the illegal entry of ABRs and fish products into commercial circulation.

Known systems that track the movement of products from the manufacturer to the points of sale.

Known automated information system "Mercury" (Russia), designed for electronic certification of agricultural products (including fish products) and tracking the movement of a consignment, taking into account its crushing, across the territory of the Russian Federation in order to improve food safety. With regard to fisheries, the Mercury system provides the formation of electronic veterinary accompanying documents when catching VBR, during the production and transportation of fish products, when changing the owner of the cargo. Each e-certificate has a unique number and also contains a link to the e-certificate of the previous transaction. Thus, tracking of the passage of the batch of products specified in each certificate from the manufacturer to the last point of storage or sale of products is ensured. At the same time, the "Mercury" system has a number of shortcomings that do not allow to fully control the catches, processes of processing and movement of ABR and fish products. Firstly, the "Mercury" system operates with data on the catch of WBR reported by the responsible person (captain) of the vessel, that is, these data are subjective in nature and their reliability is highly dependent on the human factor. This means that the system does not address the issues of countering IUU fishing, which refers to violations carried out by the producers themselves, i.e. ship crews. Secondly, the system does not provide physical tracking of manufactured products, but only takes into account electronic documents for its production and movement. Thirdly, the system, as a unit of traceable products, takes into account only the consignment and does not allow tracking real units of products (for example, transport packages) included in the consignment of traceable cargo, that is, it does not protect against possible substitution of goods in a particular consignment.

The system of digital marking and tracking of goods "Honest Sign" (Russia) is known, which is developed and gradually implemented in Russia in accordance with the Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of 08.05.2019 No. 899-r. The system "Honest sign" allows you to track the passage of goods in the chain from the manufacturer to the buyer. The system operator generates codes for each unit of goods, which must be used by manufacturers when labeling products. The Chestny Znak system makes it possible to take into account manufactured products, starting from the moment of their production, and track the sale of products to the end consumer through the cash register. The development of the "Honest Mark" system implies a gradual expansion of the list of goods subject to mandatory labeling, including food products.

The systems "Mercury" and "Honest Sign" allow you to track the passage of products from the manufacturer to the points of sale and, thus, solve the issues of suppressing the illegal circulation of products. However, these systems do not potentially address the issue of countering IUU fishing for WBR, which refers to violations carried out by the producers themselves, i.e. ship crews.

In terms of technical essence, the closest to the proposed technical solution is a set of solutions for fishing, presented by Pole Star Space Applications Limited (England), which includes: vessel monitoring system (VMS); electronic reporting system for the catch of fish products; quota management system; fish stock reporting system; fishery documentation system. The fundamental difference between the Pole Star solutions is that, according to the declared functional characteristics, the systems provide end-to-end monitoring of the extraction, production and marketing of marine products - "from the ocean to the dinner plate." In addition to fixing the position of the vessel using GPS in relation to time, the ship devices of the Pole Star VMS systems optionally allow you to connect and control various sensors: J1939 Data Engine block (engine speed, fuel consumption data); NMEA-2000 data transmission unit (depth sounder, surface speed sounder); analog sensors attached to the winch drums and hydraulic lines to control the setting and hauling of fishing gear. In addition, when using satellite broadband equipment, it is possible to: transmit GPS data in real time with a resolution of 1 minute; capturing video at a low frame rate; transmission of data from sensors of fishing gear; reading RFID tags.

The disadvantages of VMS Pole Star are: the lack of solutions that increase the reliability of navigation data on controlled vessels (location, speed and heading coordinates); lack of objective control of the volume of the catch and its binding to the produced fish products; lack of control over the conditions of storage and transportation of ABR and fish products.

Unlike the closest analogue and other solutions discussed above, the proposed information-analytical system provides a full-fledged integrated solution to the problem of countering IUU fishing, uncontrolled transportation and illegal trafficking of ABR, which makes it possible to track the location of fishing vessels and their fishing activities in accordance with the available permits with a high degree of reliability. , as well as to control all stages of the life cycle of aquatic biological resources (from catch to delivery to the end consumer) based on objective instrumental control with minimization of the influence of the human factor and maximum use of existing and created systems for tracking and labeling products.

An information-analytical system (IAS) is proposed that provides, through integrated multifunctional ship complexes (IMSK), the collection and accumulation in non-volatile memory (“black box”) of reliable information about the navigation parameters (position coordinates, speed, heading) of the vessel, information from the associated ship equipment (navigational, technological, etc.), information from video surveillance equipment; automatic instrumental control of the WBR catch volume; automatic identification of used fishing gear; control of the conduct of fishing operations in certain fishing zones in accordance with the available permits; control of the mass of produced fish products and assessment of its compliance with the norms for the output of finished products; integration of IMSCs with EPI; tracking the movement of marked fish products from the vessel to the consumer; control of conditions of storage and transportation of fish products.

The information and analytical system for monitoring the activities of fishing vessels, controlling the catch, processing and movement of aquatic biological resources and products made from them contains a monitoring center 1, to which automated workstations 2-1 ... 2-I of operators, administrators and users are connected, interacting with sectoral monitoring system of the executive authority for state control in the field of fisheries and conservation of aquatic biological resources, for example, the sectoral monitoring system (OSM) of Rosrybolovstvo 3, which contains a unified database on controlled vessels, fishing gear, types of aquatic biological resources and the nomenclature of fish products, as well as contains integrated multifunctional ship systems 6-1…6-K, designed to be installed on vessels of the fishing fleet in order to determine navigation data from the signals of global satellite navigation systems 5, collect data on the used fishing gear, data on volume (mass) of the ABR catch and produced fish products, individual images, streaming video and other controlled information and interconnected for data exchange with the monitoring center 1 via mobile communication networks 4. The information accumulated in IMSK 6-1 ... 6-K can be transmitted via wireless communication networks, such as Wi-Fi, into mobile control terminals (MKT) 17-1…17-P, designed to equip employees of control and supervisory authorities and interacting with monitoring center 1 via the Internet 16. Fishing gear 22-1…22 -V are supplied with unique identifiers - markers 20-1...20-T, and shipping packages with fish products 21-1...21-U are supplied with markers 19-1...19-S, and the markers are made, for example, using RFID technology. With the help of marker readers (RFID readers) 9-1…9-L installed on vessels, information about the use of fishing gear and the movement of manufactured products is recorded in IMSK 6-1…6-K and then transmitted to monitoring center 1, using stationary and /or manual readers of markers 18-1…18-R, located outside the vessels, information about the movement of marked fish products is transmitted via the Internet 16 to the monitoring center 1. In addition, employees of regulatory and supervisory authorities staying on ships can be equipped with manual readers of markers , for reading markers installed on fishing gear and on shipping packages with fish products. Monitoring Center 1, based on data received from IMSK 6-1…6-K and marker readers 18-1…18-R, and in cooperation with the OSM of the Federal Agency for Fishery 3, performs comprehensive monitoring of the fishing activities of vessels at the program level, including monitoring compliance with permitted zones catch, accounting of the volume (mass) of the catch and produced fish products, control of reloading to another vessel and unloading of fish products in the port, moving it from the vessel to the last point where the control of markers of shipping packages is carried out.

Monitoring center 1 can be interconnected with the following systems, which ensure the transfer to the monitoring center (1) of information about the movement of ABR and fish products:

cold chain control system 23 to obtain data on the conditions of transportation (storage) of labeled fish products, while tracking not only the movement of fish products, but also the compliance of the conditions of its transportation (storage) with sanitary standards;

veterinary electronic certification system, for example, the Mercury system 24, and the monitoring center 1 receives from the system 24 that generates electronic veterinary accompanying documents (eVSD), information on the movement (change of ownership) of each batch of fish products and a unique certificate number for each such batch , which includes marked shipping packages 21-1…21-U, equipped with markers 19-1…19-S, and based on data received from IMSK 6-1…6-K and marker readers 18-1…18 -R, and in cooperation with the OSM of the Federal Agency for Fishery 3, at the program level, monitors the movement of each marked 21-U commodity-transport package in the specified batch from the ship to the point of sale;

a system for digital marking and tracking of goods, for example, the “Honest Sign” system 25, and the monitoring center 1 receives from the system 25 unique codes generated for marking fish products, if this type of fish products is included in the list of goods subject to mandatory labeling, after which, by comparison of marker codes 19-1 ... 19-S, which are used to mark commercial shipping packages 21-1 ... 21-U, with codes assigned to fish products in the system 25, monitors the sale of fish products to the end consumer at the program level.

Any IMSK 6-1…6-K ensures receipt of 14 ship daily reports from the ship complex "Electronic Fishing Log" (EPZh) and their transmission to the monitoring center 1 using built-in transceiver radio facilities via satellite communication network channels 4 (for example, a multifunctional system of personal satellite communications (MSPSS) "Gonets"), and the monitoring center 1 immediately transfers the received DSS to the OSM of the Federal Agency for Fishery 3, which processes the DSS in the normal mode. Controlled information accumulated in any IMSK 6-1…6-K for a certain period of time, including images and streaming video received from video cameras 11-1…11-M, can be read into MKT 17-1…17-P for its viewing and/or transmission to the monitoring center 1 via broadband channels (for example, using VSAT technology) of the mobile communication network 4 via the broadband communication terminal 8 for further complex processing and analysis.

Each IMSK 6-1 ... 6-K has an identification number and is designed to determine the navigation parameters of the vessel (position coordinates, speed, heading) from the signals of global satellite navigation systems (GLONASS, GPS, etc.), control the legality, status and facts of loss fishing gear, determining the volume (mass) of UBR catches, weight control of produced fish products, control of labeling of produced fish products, obtaining individual images and streaming video, collecting information from ship navigation equipment (Automatic Identification System (AIS) equipment), gyroscope, log, navigation echo sounder, etc.) and other shipborne equipment equipped with standard interfaces, information exchange with the EPL, automatic detection of abnormal situations - events (power outage, an attempt to unauthorized opening of the equipment case, an attempt to distort navigation and other collected information, etc.), registration of the collected information rmation in non-volatile memory (“black box”), information interaction with the monitoring center 1, including the transmission of an identification number and the information being collected. IMSK contains a multifunctional navigation and communication complex (MNSK) 7 with a built-in receiver of global satellite navigation systems, a transceiver (for example, a subscriber terminal MSPSS "Gonets") and non-volatile memory, designed to collect and accumulate information from various ship equipment and devices in as part of IMSK, marker readers 9-1…9-L, a modular catch volume control complex 10, video cameras 11-1…11-M, and also functionally contains electronic marine scales 12, AIS 13 equipment, EPZh 14 ship complex and associated ship equipment 15-1…15-N.

IMSK 6-1 ... 6-K provides the ability to connect a broadband subscriber terminal 8, which allows you to transfer large amounts of information (for example, data from the "black box", individual images and streaming video) to the monitoring center 1. IMSK 6-K contains a built-in MNSK 7 is a wireless data transmission device (for example, with support for Wi-Fi wireless local area network technology), which allows transferring data from the drive (“black box”) to MKT 17-1 ... 17-P if necessary. MKT 17-1…17-R provide the establishment of a wireless data transmission channel with IMSC, setting the reading parameters and reading the contents of the drive (“black box”) of the IMSC via the established data transmission channel according to the specified parameters (for example, for the specified date and time interval and / or by type of information). MKT 17-1…17-R provide the ability to search, select and display information read from the “black box” of the IMSC, including navigation information with the ability to indicate the location of the vessel on an electronic map, individual images and streaming video. MKT 17-1…17-P provide the ability to establish a high-speed connection with the monitoring center 1 via the mobile communication network 4 and transfer the information read from the “black box” of the IMSK.

Monitoring center 1 contains software and hardware systems, including computer equipment, channel-forming equipment, information security tools and a software package, all together forming a cloud environment that provides analytical processing, storage and transmission of large amounts of information and data, and in this cloud environment a single an integration bus that allows organizing information interaction with interfaced systems and equipment, as well as containing software components that implement the functions of recording and controlling the operation of fishing gear, the functions of generating, verifying industry codes for marking fishing gear and fish products and linking codes for marking fish products to eVSD in the "Mercury" system or a similar system and digital marking codes in the "Chestny Znak" system or a similar system, functions for monitoring and verifying the volumes of ABR catches and produced fish products, functions for tracking the movement and conditions of transportation and storage of marked fish products, functions of intelligent analysis of photo and video materials received from IMSK 6-1…6-K, as well as advanced functions of an electronic fishing log, taking into account navigation data received from IMSK 6-1…6-K, objective control data the work of fishing gear, the volume of the WBR catch and the produced fish products.

IMSK 6-1…6-K are made on the basis of the multifunctional navigation and communication complex MNSK 7, which can structurally consist of one or more interconnected devices and contains at least one computer (controller), built-in receiver of global satellite navigation systems (GLONASS, GPS, etc. .), subscriber terminal MSPSS "Gonets", a large data storage device ("black box"), standard interfaces for interfacing with external equipment (for example, Ethernet, CAN, USB, RS-232, RS-422, RS-485), means of protecting data transmission channels, a power supply device that provides connection of IMSK 6-1 ... 6-K to the ship's power supply network, in addition, IMSK 6-1 ... 6-K contains readers of markers 9-1 ... transport packages with fish products, a modular catch volume control complex 10, video cameras 11-1 ... equipment 15-1…15-N. Also, a broadband subscriber terminal 8 can be connected to any IMSK 6-1 ... 6-K to transfer large-scale data to the monitoring center 1, including individual images and online streaming video, data accumulated in the "black box".

The modular catch volume control complex 10 is configured depending on the type of vessel and the fishing gear used in one of three options: to determine the volume and weight parameters of the FBR catch based on non-contact measurement of the geometry of the trawl selected on the fishing deck, to determine the volume and weight parameters of the FBR catch in the receiving bunker based on measuring the degree of filling of the bunker, to determine the volumetric and weight parameters of the catch of crab caught using crab traps, using computer vision technologies, and, regardless of the configuration option, this complex includes a calculator 26, interconnected with a multifunctional navigation and communication complex 7 via interface 27. When used on a crab fishing vessel, the modular catch volume control complex 10 contains at least one video camera 28 and a crab trap marker code reader 29, and computer spy technology is used to estimate the catch volume (number of individuals) of the crab. ion, in which the calculator 26 ensures the acquisition and processing of images from the video camera 28 using neural network algorithms. The crab trap marker code reader 29 allows you to automatically track the legality of the fishing gear, as well as the fact that the trap has been lost.

To determine the volume of FBR in the receiving hopper, the modular catch volume control complex 10 contains sensors for determining the degree of filling of the hopper 29, and the calculator 26 at the software level calculates the volume of FBR according to the degree of filling of the hopper, based on the known value of the volume and geometry of the hopper, and then on the known value of the specific the mass of a particular type of WBM, the mass of WBM in the bunker is calculated. Determining the volume of FBG in the trawl is carried out according to the principle of non-contact measurement of the volume of the catch in the selected trawl, similar to that described in the utility model patent RU 127 358, and to implement this principle, the catch volume control complex contains a video camera 31 and laser modules 32 installed on the aft portal 33 of the vessel , and that the calculator 26 provides the calculation of the volume of the trawl 35 when it moves along the fishing deck 34 of the vessel.

MKT 17-1…17-P are made on the basis of commercially available tablet computers equipped with a wireless data transmission device compatible with the wireless network standard similar to an integrated multifunctional ship complex, for example, Wi-Fi, and a network device that provides interaction with the monitoring center 1 via Internet 16. In MKT 17-1 ... 17-R, the functions of managing information exchange with IMSK 6-1 ... 6-K and monitoring center 1, forming parameters for reading the “black box” of IMSK, managing reading data from the “black box” of MLSC, management of data transfer to the monitoring center, as well as search, selection and display of selected information on the tablet computer screen, are implemented using special software that is loaded into the tablet computer.

Obtaining in IMSK 6-1…6-K reliable information about the navigation parameters of the vessel is ensured by using a set of technical and algorithmic tools: calculating navigation parameters, for example, using a multi-system satellite navigation receiver GLONASS/GPS/GALILEO/BeiDou; using an additional inertial navigation sensor (angular velocity sensor (ARS) or gyroscope), which allows you to track the change in the course of the vessel and compare with the data coming from the navigation receiver; using data generated by the associated ship navigation equipment (gyrocompass, log, automatic identification system (AIS) equipment). Discrepancies detected by IMSK 6-1…6-K between navigation data received from different sources are recorded as events, and the facts of such events are transmitted to the system monitoring center. Collection of information from various technological equipment (for example, from electronic marine scales 12, temperature sensors in the freezer 15-1 ... 15-N) and other ship equipment is provided in IMSK 6-1 ... 6-K through standard interfaces (RS-232, RS-422, RS-485, Can, Ethernet) using standard communication protocols (for example, NMEA-0183, NMEA-2000). Obtaining video information in IMSK 6-1…6-K is provided by connecting standard video cameras 11-1…11-M, for example, digital video cameras with an Ethernet interface. Due to the presence of a large data storage (“black box”) and computing hardware, IMSK 6-1 ... 6-K implements video recording functions: recording with a given time interval and storing images of a given resolution and quality; recording from several video cameras and storing streaming video with specified resolution, quality (bitrate) and frame rate; scheduled, event-based, or on-demand transmission from a monitoring center of image or streaming video with specified parameters over an available broadband connection. IMSC supports instrumental control of the amount of WBR catch in several ways, depending on the type of vessel and the type of WBR produced.

To determine the weight characteristics of the catch, direct weighing of the WBR catch can be used (practically not used due to the lack of equipment on board for weighing large masses), or volume-weight methods. When using volume-weight methods, the mass of the catch can be calculated, for example, from the volume of the catch through the known coefficients of the specific mass of the caught fish.

Automatic identification of fishing gear allows you to detect the illegal use of unrecorded fishing gear, as well as quickly identify the loss of fishing gear, which can lead to negative environmental consequences. In the proposed system for automatic identification of fishing gear, the well-known principle of radio frequency identification (RFTD) can be used, in which fishing gear is equipped with special devices - RFID markers containing a unique identifier and other information about the fishing gear in accordance with the requirements of national or international standards. Automatic identification of a fishing gear (crab trap, trawl or other) is carried out, in particular, when it is hauled (lifted) onto the vessel. In case of loss of fishing gear, IMSK 6-1…6-K will fix the coordinates of this place, which will allow for a quick search and recovery of the lost fishing gear. Fisheries authorities can, if necessary, check the legality of fishing gear using a handheld RFID scanner. The control of fishing operations in certain fishing zones in accordance with the available permits is ensured by determining the correspondence between the geographical location where the use of fishing gear on a particular vessel was detected and the geographical area in which this vessel is allowed to harvest WBR. In addition, the total mass of PBRs caught in the specified geographical area is taken into account and it is checked that this mass did not exceed the allowable value specified in the fishing permits.

To determine the mass of produced fish products, electronic marine scales, for example, the VTS-60 type from TechnoCity, Russia, can be used, which have a standard interface for transferring measurement results to an external device. In order to automatically record the produced fish products, a special marker containing a unique identifier is installed for each shipping package with fish products to be weighed. In the proposed system, an RFID tag is used as such a marker, while the identification of the package does not require direct visibility between the reader and the marker. When the RFID reader is located next to the sea scales, each marked shipping package with fish products installed on the scales will be automatically registered in the system, indicating its identifier and weight.

The integration of IMSK 6-1…6-K with EPZH allows supplementing the data on the volume of extracted WBR with information on the types of WPB indicated in the PIH by the responsible person on the ship, as well as comparing all data received from IMSK with the data available in the TPZh, and automatically identify discrepancies between these data. This is one of the ways to counter illegal fishing.

Tracking the movement of marked fish products from the ship to the consumer prevents the illegal entry of fish products into commercial circulation. When reading the marker of the shipping package at any stage of its movement, the read code of the marker is compared with the code taken into account in the system when forming the package with fish products. If a discrepancy is found, such products are considered counterfeit. In the proposed system, the control of the passage of marked shipping packages at any stage of their movement and storage can be carried out by stationary and manual readers of RFID markers, informationally connected to the monitoring center via the Internet.

Integration with a system of veterinary electronic certification such as the "Mercury" 24 system will improve the efficiency of tracking fish products as they move from the vessel to the point of sale (point of change of ownership of fish products). In the proposed system, each shipping package with fish products is taken into account along with a unique certificate number for a batch of products assigned in the Mercury system. Thus, based on information about the location of a batch of fish products received from the Mercury system, and information about the packages included in this batch, traceability of fish products from the ship to the point of sale is ensured. Integration in the future with the national system of digital marking and traceability of goods such as the Chestny Znak system 25 will make it possible to control the sale of recorded fish products to the final consumer, if the relevant types of fish products are included in the list of goods subject to mandatory digital labeling.

Control of the conditions of storage and transportation of fish products is necessary to control compliance with the temperature regime in the environment of storage and transportation of products, which is necessary to maintain product quality. Control is provided by a device equipped with at least one temperature sensor, as well as a non-volatile memory in which the sensor readings are recorded. Cold chain monitoring is presented, for example, in the invention CN 10 6 292 421, where monitoring modules are supposed to be placed in a warehouse, vehicle, refrigerated container. Monitoring modules are registered on the server, codes and descriptions are added to them. A time interval is set for the modules, according to which the modules transmit temperature and humidity data to the server. When a controlled object enters a warehouse, vehicle or refrigerated container, this object is equipped with a code label. The identification device is connected to the cold chain monitoring module; the code mark is scanned through the identification device and the scan data is uploaded to the server. The server stores and calculates the temperature and humidity data monitored by the monitoring modules and the scan data received by the identification device. The proposed system provides information interface with an external system for monitoring the cold price.

The implementation of the invention can be illustrated by the block diagram of the proposed IAS, shown in Fig. 1 and including:

The process of identification of fishing gear is illustrated by the example of a crab trap (Fig. 2, 3). An RFID marker is rigidly attached to the trap. An RFID reader is placed in the trap selection area, and a video camera is additionally placed in the trap selection area. For each selected trap, IMSK 6-1…6-K will receive information about its identifier and an accompanying photograph.

The implementation of a modular complex for monitoring the volume of catch depends on the type of fishing vessel and the fishing gear used. For vessels engaged in trawl fishing, the catch control complex can be built according to the principle of non-contact measurement of the catch volume in the selected trawl, proposed in the utility model patent RU 127 358, publication 04/27/2013. A more universal method of control, applicable for trawl, purse and other fishing methods, is to determine the volume-weight parameters of the catch inside the receiving hopper. To do this, an appropriate sensor (or sensor system) must be placed in the receiving hopper, for example, a hopper filling level sensor. A non-contact ultrasonic sensor designed for continuous measurement of the level of liquid products and bulk media, such as the EasyTREK level gauge, can be used as a hopper filling level sensor. When catching crabs, crab traps are mainly used. Given the relatively small size of the crab trap, standard marine scales can be used to determine the mass of the catch, or volumetric weight methods can be used, for example, based on a machine vision system (video image processing).

Despite the fact that in the IAS each shipping package with fish products is marked with a unique identifier, it is also possible to traditionally label fish products packages with standard barcodes or other product identifiers. In the database of the monitoring center 1, the mutual binding of such commodity identifiers (barcodes) and RFID markers is provided. Thus, double control of marking (by product identifier and RFID marker) at any stage of the movement of fish products will allow you to quickly identify falsification facts.

Data on the weight of each weighed unit is recorded in the "black box" IMSK 6-1 ... /bottom) of fish products, the movement of each marked commodity transport unit is recorded using a reader 9-1, recorded in the "black box" IMSK 6-1 ... monitoring center 1 over mobile network 4.

The information accumulated in the “black box” IMSK 6-1…6-K can be read directly to the monitoring center 1 via broadband communication channels, if a broadband communication terminal 8 is installed. MKT 17-1…17-R, based on tablet computers.

In the process of unloading / reloading fish products, additional control of marked commodity transport units of products can be carried out using manual readers of markers 18-1 ... 18-R (Fig. 4, 5) connected to monitoring center 1 for transmitting readable marker codes via the Internet 16. With the help of manual and stationary readers of markers 18-1 ... 18-R, connected to the monitoring center 1 via the Internet 16, it is possible to control the loading of marked fish products onto transport refrigerators, as well as control the unloading of fish products and store them in warehouses (Fig. .6). When informationally interfaced with an external cold chain control system 23, monitoring center 1 receives from this system data on the conditions of transportation (storage) of labeled fish products. Thus, not only the movement of products is monitored, but also the compliance of the conditions of its transportation (storage) with sanitary standards.

The modular catch volume control complex 10, the main element of which is the calculator 26, is interconnected with the MNSK 7 via the interface 27 (Fig. 7). Modular complex 10 includes a set of electronic data collection devices, the composition of which depends on the type of vessel and the fishing gear used. For example, for a crab fishing vessel, the set of electronic data collection devices includes at least one video camera 28 and a reader 29 of the crab trap marker code. In this implementation, the modular complex evaluates the amount of crab catch in each trap or determines the number of crab individuals using computer vision technologies. The calculator ensures the acquisition and processing of images from the video camera using neural network algorithms to identify crab individuals. The crab trap marker code reader allows you to automatically track the legality of the fishing gear, as well as the fact that the trap has been lost.

To determine the volume of FBG in the trawl, a set of electronic data collection devices includes a video camera 31 and laser modules 32 installed on the stern portal 33, which ensures the calculation of the volume of the trawl 35 when it moves along the fishing deck 34 of the vessel. To determine the volume of WBM in the receiving hopper 30, a set of electronic data collection devices includes sensors 29 for determining the degree of filling of the hopper. With a known volume and geometry of the hopper, the volume of the WBR is calculated from the degree of filling of the bunker, then the mass of the WBR in the bunker is calculated from the known value of the specific gravity of the WBR of a particular type.
