Trusted has carried out successful testing of
its S1 Satellite/GPS tracker.
5. April 2017
In cooperation with Royal Artic Line
and on board two of their vessels –
Arina Arctica and Mary Arctica – the
Trusted S1 Tracker has performed
in the toughest of environments.
Visits to Greenland and the Antarctica showed that the battery powered S1 tracker performed well and as expected.
Over a period of 6 months, the S1
Iridium tracker first was onboard
Arina Arctica on a trip both east and
west of Greenland up to Lat 78°.
Then after returning from Greenland, the tracker was moved over
to Mary Arctica for a trip to Antarctica for delivery of supplies to
the Norwegian bases at Lat -72°.
Antarctica is the coldest, windiest
and driest continent on Earth, nevertheless the S1 tracker performed
remarkable well without missing a
single transmission report. On route,
it also endured the heat at the equator, so a wide temperature range
was tested as well. In all, the tracker travelled more than 50.000 km,
logging positions every hour and
transmitting four reports per day.
No position and no report were lost
and all data were delivered timely
and made visible and available online at the Trusted Visibility Suite.

The S1 tracking device supports
true global coverage. S1 uses Iridium satellite communication that
covers the earth from pole to pole.
For all equipment and assets working in regions and areas where
there is no GSM coverage the
S1 will ensure that you maintain
full visibility no matter if you are in
the dessert, on the savannah or
at sea. Supply chain visibility and
S1 sends GPS reports each 1-24 hours and the
battery will last for 6000+ reports. Given e.g. 2 reports/day this equals a battery life time of 8 years.
The S1 is a continuation of the Iridium satellite and GPS
work Trusted has carried out in Africa since 2015. Here our
trackers have been working in the field of anti-poaching and
scientific wild life tracking helping to secure endangered
species like rhinos, elephants and many other animals.

S1 is built on the same principles as in our T-series of
tracking devices. They have extreme battery life time and
