GPS-UHF SRD trackers
The smallest and the lightest GPS trackers from our offer. Designed for tracking animals which regularly return to their nests, burrows etc. during the breeding season. Programming and data access are possible via UHF link - there is no need to recapture animals. All-year-round tracking of migrants is also possible, but with data download after their return in the base station range.
Key features:
- Data access & programming via UHF link;
- GPS intervals: user programmable, from 1 to 240 minutes;
- GPS controlled by the operating-hours schedule, light sensor or diving sensor;
- Delayed start: 24, 48 hours or until first diving;
- Recorded with GPS position: speed, GPS altitude, battery voltage, operating parameters, diving duration with time stamp of each event; diving depth (pressure) & temperature (only versions with a depth sensor);
- GPS-UHF SRD (short range download) link range in the line of sight: ground-to-ground >100m, ground-to-air or air-to-ground >500m;
- Diving sensor (wet/dry);
- Base station (hand operated or field installed) for automatic data download and settings change;
- Long-life rechargeable battery & charging pins;
- Highly efficient solar charger, works well also in a low light conditions;
- Memory capacity: 130.000 GPS positions.
Optional:
- Hydrostatic pressure & temperature sensor (TDR), 0-30 bar (~300m depth), resolution 2.5 mbar (2.6 cm), absolute value accuracy 50 mbar;
- Barometric pressure & temperature sensor (Altimeter), resolution 0.05 hPa (~0.5m), absolute value accuracy 0.2 hPa (~2m);
- Light sensor - daytime detection;
- Customized attaching points for harness, gluing or taping to the feathers and more;
- Wet/dry diving detection sensor and diving duration logger;
- Pressure-proof version for deep-diving birds or turtles;
Functions:
- “No GPS signal" - detects no GPS signal and switches off logger in a den, etc.;
- Diving duration logger, records each diving event with timestamps;
- “Stops in the base range" - UHF base station signal can terminate the GPS data collection to protect battery in a burrow, den or when animal is in the nest;
- UHF digital telemetry. It has ~50% bigger range than UHF communication link. Enables easier animal locating and getting close enough to download the data. This feature is not dedicated for directional tracking as in case of the VHF;
Key features:
- GPS intervals: from 1 minute to 24 hours or 1s to 30s in bursts;
- GPS controlled by: duty-hours schedule, light sensor or immersion sensor;
- Long-life rechargeable battery;
- Highly efficient solar charger, works as well in a low light conditions;
