★ ★ ★ Whale Alert Overview

       

What is Whale Alert? Whale Alert is an app that helps reduce the chance of fatal ship strikes by large vessels by displaying active whale management areas, required reporting areas, recommended routes, areas-to-be-avoided and near real-time warnings in shipping lanes along both coasts of the United States and Canada. The app also supports reporting of whale sightings by the maritime community and the broader public, which is shared in real-time with leading whale researchers and state and federal management authorities. In some cases, whale sightings will trigger confirmation “over-flights” by the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) or the United States Coast Guard (USCG) who will then determine whether or not temporary speed restrictions should be created (Dynamic Management Areas).

Top Pcmac Reviews

  • Doesn’t appear to work

    By Ship Pilot (Pcmac user)

    This app doesn’t appear to work off the Oregon and Washington coast. Sightings and feedback emails go unanswered. Is anyone home?
  • Needs work

    By TiburcioVasquez (Pcmac user)

    I get updates, but there is no way to actually look up the sighting in the app. It should allow the user to select the most recent sightings by location. App has potential but needs lots of work!
  • Great App to save the Great Whales

    By Mapmike (Pcmac user)

    Glad to see the update and I hope everyone uses it!
  • Good app but now crashing

    By cwgoodwin30 (Pcmac user)

    On iOS 8.2 app crashes when opened
