Access to the application requires a customer code. You can get a temporary code to test the system and validate if it meets your need. HELITRACKING allows helicopters on mission to communicate using three communication channels: 3G, Satellite Iridium, or Gotenna short range radio. The objective is to replace the radio communication between the command center, the helicopter, and the people on the ground, when the radio link is not available. The command center has a global view of all its helicopters, their position, their trajectory, and can communicate with them through a chat window. They can exchange text, images, geographic markers, predefined messages ... The interface is personalized for each client: we get in touch with your operators, and create a "tailor-made" graphic interface, dedicated to your missions. This ensures that you have an application that perfectly meets your needs. The satellite communication interface is very efficient, with messages sent back every 20 seconds, thus allowing a dialogue in almost real time between the helicopter and the operational center: this allows the helicopter to remain in permanent contact even at the helicopter. above the sea, in the desert, in the middle of the mountains ... when there is no longer any working means of communication. Contact us for more information on the satellite version. The system does not require any helicopter modification, it is plug and play, even in its satellite version: it is installed in 5 minutes before the mission and does not require any training.
