Frente Insular Partners with Eyesea to Enhance Marine Conservation in the Galápagos Islands Marine Reserve

Frente Insular FMG, the locally-based conservation organization dedicated to protecting the unique ecosystems of the Galápagos Islands Marine Reserve, is proud to announce a partnership with Eyesea, a global leader in marine environmental technology. This collaboration will leverage Eyesea’s cutting-edge technology to monitor coastal areas and report on pollution recovery efforts within the reserve.

The Galápagos Islands, a UNESCO World Heritage site, are home to an extraordinary array of wildlife and marine biodiversity. Frente Insular’s work is a critical part of protecting this pristine environment from pollution and human impact. By integrating Eyesea’s innovative technology, Frente Insular aims to enhance its conservation efforts through more precise and efficient monitoring and clean-up of the coastal regions.

 

Alberto Andrade, Head of Frente Insular said “We are very pleased to partner with Eyesea to enhance our conservation efforts in the Galápagos Islands Marine Reserve.” This collaboration will provide us with the tools and data necessary to protect our coastal areas more effectively, report on our work, and ensure the preservation of this incredible ecosystem for future generations.”

 

Key Features of the Partnership include:

Advanced Monitoring Technology: Eyesea’s technology utilizes crowdsourced data collection and satellite imagery to provide real-time data on pollution levels. This will enable Frente Insular to promptly identify pollution in remote locations and coordinate community-driven pollution recovery work.

Comprehensive Reporting: The partnership will facilitate detailed reporting on recovered pollution, helping to track the effectiveness of cleanup efforts and informing future conservation strategies. Eyesea’s user-friendly platform will allow for future in-depth analysis of pollution trends and hotspots.

Community Engagement: Local communities and stakeholders will be actively involved in the monitoring process. Through educational initiatives and citizen science programs, residents and visitors will be encouraged to contribute to the protection of the Galápagos environment.

Sustainable Solutions: Insights gained from the data collected will drive the development of sustainable pollution management practices, ensuring the long-term health of the marine reserve.

Eyesea’s Founder, Graeme Somerville-Ryan, expressed enthusiasm for the partnership, stating, “The Galápagos Islands are a global treasure, and we are honored to support Frente Insular in their mission to safeguard this unique environment. Our technology is designed to empower people, companies, and authorities with the information they need to make a real difference, and we are excited to see the positive impact it will have in the Galápagos.”
