JouBeh Technologies of Dartmouth continues its advance into maritime industry through major regulatory achievements and strategic partnerships.
DFO Certification of Iridium iTrac VMS
JouBeh Technologies Inc. recently received certification from Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO) for its Iridium iTrac Vessel Monitoring System (VMS). This approval streamlined compliance requirements for Canadian fishing vessels by providing reliable satellite-based tracking and reporting.
Certification meets an important need in the fishing industry, where vessels must comply with stringent monitoring regulations. By using Iridium satellite technology for position reporting and regulatory adherence purposes, iTrac VMS reduces operational burdens while guaranteeing regulatory adherence - further solidifying JouBeh's position as an enabler for sustainable fisheries management in Canadian waters.
Merger with MetOcean Data Systems.
JouBeh Technologies and MetOcean Data Systems have agreed to merge, creating metOcean Telematics. The combined entity will combine JouBeh's expertise as a leading Iridium satellite Value-Added Reseller (VAR) with MetOceans strengths in environmental data systems for maximum benefit for its customers.
The merger brings together two pioneering innovators of maritime technology. JouBeh brings extensive global experience supporting environmental data collection via satellite networks while MetOcean adds cutting-edge telematics solutions. Together these companies enhance capabilities in ocean science, surveillance and offshore operations.
MetOcean Telematics will offer integrated solutions for wildlife tracking, search and rescue operations, vehicle location, and automatic vehicle identification utilizing Iridium infrastructure for global coverage essential in remote maritime environments.
Broader Industrial Context
JouBehs' developments reflect current trends in marine technology, where satellite communications play an integral part in data collection and vessel management. As an Iridium specialist, the company serves various sectors from workboats to ocean research platforms.
JouBeh's commitment to regulatory compliance and innovation can be seen through their DFO certification and merger. Both developments enhance services provided to fishing fleets, offshore energy operators and environmental monitoring initiatives throughout North America.
