Whale Reporting System Uses ASE SBDpro |
|
Chrisar Software Technologies (Chrisar), an IT company specializing in software systems engineering and signal processing in the marine environment, chose Applied Satellite Engineering (ASE) to develop a satellite data solution for a whale reporting program that uses the global satellite network operated by Iridium Communications Inc. (NASDAQ: IRDM).
ASE is using the Iridium short-burst data (SBD) modem with specialized software customized for this application. Watchstanders on participating ships will use the system to record and transmit reports of whale sightings through the Iridium network to a central server, which will save it into a database and transmit warnings via Iridium to all subscribing ships whose tracks are likely to take them close to the animals.

What do desert rats know about improving Alaska's longest and toughest snowmobile race? Turns out, a lot.
Three small businesses from Scottsdale, Chandler and Phoenix combined to create the competitors in last month's Tesoro Iron Dog snowmobile race.
Using the Iridium satellite network, the devices added a measure of safety, reducing search time in case racers wandered off course or got hurt in the freezing wilderness. Iron Dog officials also used them to give fans a way to follow the race in real time via the Internet.
