GPS Tracking for Static Locations

The Guardian global tracking device is designed as a life-line for static locations: compounds, villas, depots or outstations. It will help to protect personnel based at locations in remote and high risk areas of the globe. This crisis management and communications device uses reliable satellite communications, ensuring there is no reliance on local infrastructure.

It utilises an L-band satellite transponder and integrated panic alarm and hand-held messaging device to provide reliable and robust static monitoring for use in high-risk environments and areas of political unrest.

Because Guardian is independent of local infrastructure, such as mobile or landline phone systems, it can operate anywhere in the world. The system is integrated into the Track24 C4i platform, allowing users access to all command, control, crisis management and GIS functions.

Messaging and monitoring



Guardian sends regular status reports and can also be reconfigured remotely through the Track24 C4i system. A fitted PDA (MNA) allows two-way text messaging, independent of GSM coverage.

Panic alarm



The panic alarm triggers a visual and audible alarm on the system in less than a minute. The Guardian runs from mains electricity but also has its own integral battery capable of transmitting panic alarms for 15 hours. This is essential for high-risk operations where sending a panic alarm should not be dependent on local power.
