SPOT2 Satellite Personal Tracker
The great outdoors can be a big, uncertain place. SPOT is the world's first satellite messenger, using the GPS satellite system to determine your location, and communications satellites to transmit that information to the chosen recipient. SPOT gives you and your loved ones peace of mind by allowing you to notify them or a GEOS International 9-1-1 Emergency Response Centre of your exact location via Google Maps, and to send for assistance in time of need around the world.
How SPOT works
GPS satellites provide coordinates.
SPOT messenger's onboard GPS chip determines your exact coordinates and sends your location and message to the SPOT satellite system.
SPOT commercial satellites relay your message to specific satellite antennas around the world.
Satellite antennas and supporting equipment route your message and location to the appropriate network.
Your message is delivered according to your instructions via text message, email or emergency notification via the response centre.
Coverage
SPOT works around the world, including virtually all of North America, Europe and Australia, portions of South America, Northern Africa and Northeastern Asia, and hundreds or thousands of miles off-shore of these areas. See the coverage map below.
