microtrak

The tag that provides assurance for pilots, instructors, and clubs.

The observation
When we embark on an ultralight flight, we usually know where we are going and may have shared this information with our friends and family.
However, in reality, no one knows exactly where we are. Some smartphone applications can transmit our position,
but sharing this information and using it effectively can still be improved. The promise microtrak® is a GPS safety tag for ultralights.
It is activated upon detection of power contact and automatically transmits its position every 20 seconds.
It can be plugged into the dashboard via USB and its very small size and weight (20 grams)
allow for permanent installation on board without requiring any special attention from the pilot.
microtrak services 
• Continuous position tracking
• SOS function: activated by the pilot to send an SMS to a pre-selected mobile number with visual confirmation on the tag
• Display of flight track (24h) thanks to Open Glider Network compatibility and export to KML format (30 days) 
All of these services are available on a website https://suividevol.microtrak.fr optimized for display on computer, tablet, or smartphone for the pilot and other selected individuals (family or friends).. 
 
The technology
microtrak is a GPS tracker that does not require a SIM card and transmits information such as position, altitude, course over ground (COG), and speed over ground (SOG). The tag communicates using LoRaWAN® technology deployed across metropolitan France on over 4,500 antennas by Orange™ and is also available in Corsica and Reunion Island. Unlike traditional mobile networks whose availability decreases with altitude, the LoRaWAN® network provides coverage both on the ground and at altitude (tested on a stratospheric balloon at over 30 km altitude).
