Tag
For light GPS loggers that need to be retrieved for downloading you must know where they are, and a radio beacon will help you track them down using a receiver and Yagi antenna.
You can choose the days and times that GPS locations are recorded with a highly sophisticated and flexible scheduler that can provide just what you want. The VHF beacon is scheduled separately, for example after you have collected the GPS locations, or for a limited time each day, to make best use of the battery power.
Great for:
VHF Beacon:
to track down the tag for data retreival
Small Size:
Starting at just 3.5 g, these tags can be used on a large number of small animals.
User-friendly Scheduler:
Scheduling tags is both easy and has great flexibility to get the locations, and fire the beacon, exactly when you want
Convenient Data Processing:
Download the data using our DLC interface and PinPoint Host software, then convert to spreadsheets or GoogleEarth files with a few clicks of a mouse.
Most useful where GPS data is required from an animal that is easily re-trapped, or when the tag becomes detached from an animal.
