- GPS satellites provide coordinates
- SPOT messenger's onboard GPS chip determines your exact coordinates and
sends your location and message to the SPOT satellite system
- SPOT commercial satellites relay your message to specific antennas around
the world
- Satellite antennas and supporting equipment route your message and location
to the appropriate network
- Your message is delivered according to your instructions via text message,
email or emergency notification via the response center
Powered by Google Maps™
When SPOT sends a text or email message to one of your contacts
or to a GEOS International 9-1-1 Emergency Response Center, it includes
your exact coordinates and a web link to view your location using Google
