SPOT Gen4 Satellite Tracker Description

About the SPOT Gen4 Satellite Tracker

SPOT Gen4 is a personal satellite tracking and SOS device.  The 4th generation sees improvements to battery life, design and durability.

SPOT Gen4 Key Features:

SOS By Satellite

Should the worst happen you can be reassured that your SPOT device will alert your emergency contacts (set-up before your trip) as well as the GEOS Emergency Response Center of your GPS co-ordinates at the push of a button.  The transmission via satellite means that even in the most remote of areas your SOS situation will be responded to.

GEOS

GEOS will assess your location to co-ordinate rescue with local emergency services as well as communicating with your emergency contacts.

Track Progress

Track Progress orders your SPOT device to begin automatically sending out tracking messages at pre-defined intervals.  All track points will be sent to SPOT Mapping, an online mapping portal where you can create a public URL for contacts to monitor as you undertake your journey.

Motion-activated tracking means the device will only send out track points when you are moving to preserve battery life.

Pre-defined message buttons on offer are Check-In for manual location updates, Help for non life threatening situations and Custom for whatever you choose e.g. running late or arrived safely.  All pre-defined messages will automatically include your GPS co-ordinates.
