FjordPulse

FjordPulse turns the Norwegian government's BarentsWatch fish-health data into a clean, mobile-friendly view of the country's entire salmon aquaculture industry — every active farm, every reporting week, on one map. WHAT YOU SEE • A live map of all active Norwegian salmon farms along the coast, color coded by their current compliance status (healthy / watch / at risk). • Per-farm detail: adult female sea lice as a percentage of the 0.5/fish regulatory limit, mobile and stationary lice categories, sea temperature, licensed capacity, environmental ("green") license status, land-based RAS facilities, and the official production area (PO1–PO13). • NEW: live satellite imagery of each farm's real location, right on its profile — double-tap it to jump straight to the farm on the map. • Twelve-week trend charts for lice and water temperature, with Norway's regulatory threshold drawn on the chart so you can see at a glance whether a farm is trending toward or away from non-compliance. • Active treatment timeline: thermal delousing, freshwater bath, in-feed treatments, mechanical removal, cleaner-fish deployments. • ILA and PD disease outbreak flags, PD surveillance/protection zone labels, and fish escape events. • A national snapshot in the Insights tab: industry-wide lice averages, outbreak counts, water-condition ranges, and municipality hotspots. NEW IN 1.1 — FAVORITES THAT FOLLOW YOU • Tap the star on any farm to add it to your favorites, then filter the Farms list to just those. Favorite from the list, the farm profile, or the map. • Save a search — your text plus the status filter and sort — and reapply it with a tap. • Sign in with Apple or Google (optional) to sync your favorites and saved searches across every device. Signed out, they still work on this device and merge into your account the moment you sign in. WHO IT'S FOR • Aquaculture professionals, fish-health technicians and farm operators who want a quick mobile read on conditions across the industry. • Investors and analysts tracking salmon producers (Mowi, SalMar, Lerøy, Bakkafrost and others) where lice and disease outbreaks move share prices. • Environmental researchers, journalists, and wild-salmon advocates following the impact of farming on Norwegian fjords. • Coastal residents, fjord-tourism operators and sport anglers curious about what is happening at farms in their region. • Curious individuals. PRIVACY FjordPulse works fully without an account. Signing in with Apple or Google is optional and only enables syncing your favorite farms and saved searches across your devices; to do that we store your account email and a user identifier, and nothing more. Farm data comes from BarentsWatch via a small proxy server we operate, with Apple App Attest verifying that requests come from a genuine install. No personal browsing or location history is collected. [ADS] FjordPulse shows ads through Google AdMob, which collects device and usage data to deliver them; you can limit personalized ads in iOS Settings. Read the full Privacy Policy at https://leetsyplakov.github.io/FjordPulse-policies/. LANGUAGES The app ships in Norwegian (default — matches the source data) and English. The English mode translates Norwegian place names via Google Translate and caches each name on your device so the same name is fetched at most once. DATA SOURCE All farm data is from BarentsWatch, the Norwegian government's official marine open-data service, refreshed weekly when farms file their reports. FjordPulse is an independent app and is not affiliated with BarentsWatch, the Mattilsynet (Norwegian Food Safety Authority) or any salmon producer. INFORMATIONAL USE ONLY The data in FjordPulse is provided for informational purposes only. It is not financial, regulatory, or operational advice. Always consult the primary source and qualified professionals before acting on aquaculture data.
