We've Done A Lot's, Let's Check Some Our Recent Research
Our Wildlife GPS collars include an accelerometer that allows users to acquire raw accelerometer data in three axes. Customers can schedule at which times the accelerometer samples; configure the sampling rate; and select from a range of sensitivity specific for their needs.
Along with recording raw data, the accelerometer on our wildlife GPS devices provides added functionality. The energy reports can be created and downloaded remotely by the user. The accelerometer can also recognize periods of no movement, thereby adjusting the GPS schedule automatically when the animal is resting in no GPS signal areas. Further to this, the accelerometer can be used to detect behavior and adjust the GPS schedule according to those behaviors to actively track the animal during specific behaviors.

Here are the three most commonly asked questions but please do not hesitate to reach out to us at your convenience.
This depends on several factors including the battery technology, the temperature during the study, the capacity of the battery, the amount of current required by the GPS, the habitat, the GPS schedule and much more.
All of our products can send you information by satellite. The range of the data download varies depending upon conditions. The radio portion of the download has been demonstrated to work up to 40 km., but this is maximum under ideal conditions.
