Transform dredging governance with real-time vessel tracking, automated royalty verification, and intelligent compliance monitoring.
Overview
DredgeWatch is GreenFinder's next-generation digital platform designed to modernize the monitoring and governance of dredging and sand mining operations. By integrating AIS vessel tracking, LiDAR-based volume estimation, geofencing intelligence, and automated royalty verification, DredgeWatch provides regulators and concession owners with complete visibility over dredging activities.
The platform eliminates reliance on manual reporting, reduces revenue leakage, strengthens regulatory compliance, and enables data-driven decision-making through a centralized operational dashboard.
Key Challenges Addressed
Revenue Leakage
Manual volume reporting and royalty declarations can result in under-reporting, inaccurate calculations, and loss of government revenue.
Limited Operational Visibility
Traditional monitoring methods do not provide real-time insight into vessel movements, dredging activities, or concession compliance.
Compliance Enforcement Difficulties
Detecting unauthorized dredging activities, operational violations, and equipment tampering is challenging without continuous monitoring.
Audit & Verification Complexity
Manual verification processes are time-consuming and often lack supporting evidence for enforcement actions.
