China's fishermen are riding a new wave of safety thanks to the BeiDou Navigation Satellite System. Along the southeastern coast, this homegrown tech is transforming maritime life by delivering real-time typhoon alerts and pinpointing vessel locations—even in choppy waters.
Why it matters: Over 500,000 fishing boats now use BeiDou's monitoring platform, slashing response times during emergencies. 'Before, storms felt like Russian roulette,' says Lin Wei, a third-generation fisherman. 'Now, we outsmart the weather.'
Beyond safety, the system promotes sustainable fishing by tracking marine resources. Local authorities use data to guide fishermen toward abundant zones while protecting ecosystems.
With China aiming to expand BeiDou's global reach, this tech could soon anchor safer seas worldwide.
