Radio Tracking for Search and Rescue Program
SARTrack is a helpful application designed to display the APRS trackers on a topographical map which is ideal for radio based live tracking for Search and Rescue Teams in the field. Automatic Packet Reporting System (APRS) is an amateur radio-based system for real time tactical digital communications of information of immediate value in the local area. SARTrack allows you to access the map information without an Internet connection. The user can add new map locations by entering the coordinates from the keyboard or by using the data from the GPS device. The Event Log system allows the user to view the important events and to add log entries.
SARTrack radio tracking for search and rescue program is based on an ‘un-docked’ window system, that is, all windows are separate, and can be moved anywhere independently. SARTrack features a primary Map window for all OSM-compatible and Local Maps, with many Maps including Topographical maps for Canada and the USA, and Topographical maps for the rest of the world. Transparent Overlays are possible, and a User configurable file for OSM servers is included. A Google Map window which can be synched with the primary map (but on-line only).
SARTrack makes heavily use of OSM (OpenStreetMap) compatible Online servers for the Maps. These maps, based on a system of small Map Tiles, can then be saved for off-line use during SAR operations in the field. This off-line use saving of Tiles is not allowed when using Google Maps or other commercial Map systems. SARTrack enable the use of multi-monitor systems, in particular the use of a video projector displaying the Map, while other windows could stay on the laptop screen.
