Rechargeable, micro-sized GPS collar
Lotek Group has introduced an innovative family of GPS products intended for small mammals. As the smallest collar in our LiteTrack family, the MicroLiteTrack 10 feeds the GPS age of technology for studying very small mammalian species where VHF only technology previously existed. Small species research can now think BIG with our MicroLiteTrack 10 collar which:
- Has a rechargeable battery for multiple deployments
- ~12 grams
- Is capable of downloading and uploading collar data while on animal
Tailor the MicroLiteTrack 10 to your study and your species by choosing from a range of options below. For example, maximize battery life by taking advantage of ‘SWIFT’ fix GPS technology or utilize a horizontal external antenna streamlined along the animals back to mimic animal body movements in and out of small spaces. Best of all, recharge and redeploy the MicroLiteTrack 10 to continue to collect data and explore the ‘micro’ mammalian world.
Options
- Contact and close proximity
- External Whip Antenna: Vertical or Horizontal
- SWIFT fixes for many more locations
- Mortality indication
- Remote data download and upload with potential for UAV download
- Flexible scheduling of GPS + VHF + RF communication for extended operating life
- Sensors: field proven technological innovations such as contact-proximity, ODBA and VeDBA activity models, temperature
- Deploy multiple collars on the same frequency and distinguish between them by means of embedded collar IDs in the beacon signals
- Geofencing
