The ExoFlare Transport project extended and applied the lessons learned from the ExoFlare Visitor project, with the Transport pilot study ran in collaboration with pork producers, transporters, and processors. The pilot demonstrated how the collaborative use of data and GPS tracking of pig movements could help the industry in five areas:
- Identifying and managing biosecurity risks
- Supporting animal welfare practices and monitoring
- Implementing zoning and compartmentalization to protect market access and business viability
- Identifying and capturing operational efficiencies
- Speeding the generation and provision of records to regulators in EAD outbreak situations.
