Project Details

Environment Department, Dubai Municipality, Dubai, UAE


• The Environment Department of Dubai Municipality wished to track the movement of Turtles for identifying their nesting habitats, breeding habitats, frequency of occurrence on the beaches and related activities.
• It also aimed to monitor Dugong which is a medium-sized marine mammal, only living representative of the oncediverse family Dugongidae and the only strictly herbivorous marine mammal. With the “Vulnerable (VU)” status on IUCN Red List, its conservation becomes significantly important which was realized by the GovernmentAuthority.
• Our marine experts procured and supplied tags for tracking and monitoring along with tailor made tethers for Dugong.
• Built customized software for tracking of turtles and dugongs movement. Integration of tracking data with eSpecia and DM server
• Tags were linked with ARGOS System which is a global satellite-based location and data collection system for Marine Research Community.
