Description:

Aquaculture has been among the fastest growing global food production sectors for decades. Most recently, growth across the world’s aquaculture industries has been dominated by land-based freshwater systems outcompeting nearshore and offshore development. Technological innovations in the aquaculture field have made it possible to culture protein-rich, nutritious seafood in the coastal and offshore environments. The increasing demand for U.S.-grown seafood and improved technology to farm in open ocean sites, provides space for aquaculture expansion, increased protein production, reduced social conflict, and lower exposure to land-based sources of pollution. Consumer pressure on the industry to adopt sustainability metrics has not only improved technology, but also governance, management, and responsible siting using innovative spatial modeling. Aquaculture siting analyses utilize Geographic Information Systems (GIS) to integrate pertinent spatial data, perform analyses, and generate map-based products to inform policy and permitting decisions regarding where and when aquaculture operations may be located within a given Area of Interest (AOI). Further, an ecosystem approach to aquaculture requires the application of marine spatial planning techniques to ensure equitable shared use of resources.
