Abstract
Airborne observations of the Arctic Ocean have become an indispensable part of fish industry and marine ecology. An application of satellite data for monitoring sea mammals has been attractive for a long time. However, the practical use of satellite information was restrained by the low spatial resolution of satellite data. Additional limits are related to daytime illumination and the effects of clouds at the polar regions.
