HOW SPOT WORKS
SPOT MAPPING
1. GPS satellites provide signals.
2. SPOT Gen4 determines your GPS location and sends your location and pre-programmed message to
communication satellites.
3. Communication satellites relay your message to specific satellite antennas around the world.
4. Satellite antennas and a global network route your location and message to the appropriate network.
5. Your location and messages are delivered according to your instructions via email, text message, or
emergency notification to the emergency response center.
When SPOT sends a text or email message to one of your
contacts or to the emergency response center, it includes
your GPS coordinates and a web link (email only) to view
your location using SPOT Mapping.
