Recreational Fishing Regulations Mobile Application RFI

The California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) is issuing this Request for Information (RFI) to solicit industry input from qualified vendors on the development of a publicly accessible mobile application for Recreational Fishing Regulations (RFR). CDFW is seeking information on innovative approaches and industry best practices for designing and implementing an interactive, map-based mobile application that enables users to easily access applicable recreational marine and inland fishing regulations based on their geographic location. The application is expected to provide a geospatially driven user experience, support offline functionality, and present regulatory information in a clear, intuitive format. By improving access to location-specific fishing regulations, the application will enhance public understanding, promote regulatory compliance, and support responsible recreational fishing throughout California.
