The spider tracking device is a compact, self-contained unit, integrating a GPS receiver and transmitter in one small unit.
It relays real-time three dimensional coordinates of any vehicle, vessel or aircraft from anywhere in the world, 24 hours a day to secure servers in New Zealand and Australia, via the Iridium satellite network.

The GPS position points are translated by spidertracks software and overlaid over terrain or satellite maps, showing the speed, altitude, direction and position of one or multiple aircraft and vehicles in real time.

This provides peace of mind for both flight training, when students are completing solo cross-country flights, and for commercial operations.
