Case Study: TASA achieves smarter, more sustainable anchovy fishing with Baufest's AI solution

TASA cuts anchovy shoal review from 10% manual analysis with Baufest

TASA, a leading Peruvian fishing company, faced the challenge of inefficiently detecting anchovy shoals. Their process relied on multiple third-party software tools and manual analysis by oceanographers, which was costly and only allowed for the review of a small fraction of their data. To address this, they partnered with Baufest to innovate their fishing process through artificial intelligence.

Baufest designed and implemented an end-to-end AI solution that processes and interprets raw sonar images to automatically detect anchovy shoals. This system enables more efficient trip planning directly from the vessels. The results included high-accuracy detection, reduced navigation time, operational savings from lower fuel consumption, and a significantly reduced environmental impact through a smaller carbon footprint and less bycatch.
