Who should use spidertracks
Fleet operators - to track and manage multiple aircraft or vehicles in real time, to know where staff are at all times and to improve efficiency in your operation. If someone is overdue you’ll know exactly where to start looking. Monitor land, air and sea assets on one screen.
Flight training providers - watch over trainee pilots from the operations base and use tracks and flight logs during debriefs.
GA pilots and Owner-Operators - get peace of mind by knowing you and your aircraft or vehicle will be found quickly if something was to go wrong. And the tracking and travel time information is invaluable when it comes to billing clients for time. Commercial animal hunters or trackers also use spidertracks to accurately pinpoint the exact point of capture or kill – information that can follow the animal throughout the processing chain for traceability purposes.
Land based operators - track all of your vehicles in real time, allowing you to efficiently co-ordinate your staff while increasing their safety at the same time.
Marine - from a small personal yacht to a large cargo vessel you will be safe with spidertracks, tracking you through any weather condition. Two way communication as well as alert messages allow you to have contact with land at any time.
Health and Safety officers - if the staff in your organisation are travelling in remote areas without cellphone or radio cover, spidertracks is a cost-effective way to watch over them.
