Tracking:

Allow friends and family to follow your progress online in near real-time and save waypoints so you can review your entire route at a later date.

Important Tips

SPOT needs a clear view of the sky to obtain a GPS signal and provide the most accurate location information. It is not reliable indoors, in a case or in very dense woods.

Orienting the SPOT so that the SPOT logo is facing up toward the sky will improve performance as the antenna is located under the logo.

Keep you SPOT at least 12' away from other GPS devices.
