Worldwide Private Satellite Network Communications

The Spot IS is an ideal GPS communications device for businesses and government agencies that have personnel in remote worksites. Even where there are no effective cellular networks or landlines, the SPOT IS Messenger keeps the critical line of communication open, ensuring worker safety and wellbeing.

Certified Intrinsically Safe for Potentially Combustible Settings

In addition to offering all the functionality of the commercial grade SPOT 2 Satellite GPS Messenger, the SPOT IS has been engineered to be completely safe for use in potentially hazardous work environments, including oil, gas and other natural resource extraction and processing worksites.

Help/Assistance Needed Button

When workers in remote settings need non-emergency assistance, the GPS Satellite Communicator’s Help button provides a convenient way for lone workers to reach out for support. The SPOT IS can convey messages to a list of pre-programmed contacts.

 SOS Emergency Alert Capability

With the Spot IS Satellite Messenger, lone workers and other isolated persons can access life-saving emergency assistance by activating the device’s SOS feature. Employers and those responsible for worker safety can have peace of mind knowing that, if their vulnerable personnel are ever in dire need of emergency rescue services, the SPOT Satellite Messenger will continuously broadcast their workers’ GPS coordinates until help arrives.

Real Time GPS Tracking with Track Progress

Employers can take advantage of real time GPS tracking by selecting The Spot IS Satellite Messenger’s optional Track Progress feature. In addition to giving their workers the ability to communicate their needs using the device’s various communications options, employers and authorized staff can also follow the whereabouts of their personnel using Google Maps.    

Communicate a Custom Message over Globalstar’s Satellite Network

In addition to the other satellite communication features outlined above, the Spot IS GPS System also permits users to send a pre-programmed message to designated contacts. This significantly expands the functionality of the GPS messenger, allowing the end-user a level of customization typically found only in much pricier units.
