Data Disclaimer

Our platform shows near-real-time locations whenever a tag connects with the Argos satellite network. These opportunistic updates occur when a red drum comes close to the surface at the same time a satellite passes overhead. The updates give a good idea of where the fish is moving, but they're best seen as estimates rather than exact points.

The most complete and reliable information comes after a tag detaches from the fish on its pop-off date, floats to the surface, and sends its full dataset to the satellites. Once that happens, our team reviews the detailed records and updates the platform with a more accurate track of the fish's journey.

  • Active: Tag is deployed and communicating occasionally with the Argos satellite network prior to pop-off
  • Standby: Tag is deployed and awaiting communication with the Argos satellite network prior to pop-off
  • Inactive: Tag has popped off the fish, and tracking is complete
