Also taking notes here to update the top level post.
WDFW marine recreational fishing map (2023 brochure):
Maybe smart to just align with fishery management regions or combinations of them used in WDFW mark recapture methodology?
It would be exciting to have a dashboard that visualizes the dance that Southern Resident Killer Whales (SRKW) do with Pacific salmon. It could at least enable exploration of historic data, but might also move toward contextualizing movement that is increasingly observed in real time. In the longer run, it might become the community science "game" that Val envisioned in which anyone -- from elementary students to post-docs to naturalists to arm-chair conservationists -- can try to predict where the three SRKW pods will go in the next 24 hrs, likely in an active learning framework with AI.
Initial visualization possibilities could include:
Possible sources of salmon data, in rough order of priority for SRKW conservation insights & monitoring:
Any open code and deployed apps that prove useful for SRKWs could likely be used to help understand the movements of Northern Resident Killer Whales (NRKWs) as well.
