Latitude SkyNode

I sistemi di tracciamento e comunicazione satellitare

della Latitude Technologies sono installabili su mezzi aerei,
navali e terrestri.
Si tratta di una famiglia di sistemi ad architettura
variabile in funzione del mezzo su cui l’apparato è imbarcato e
delle esigenze di comunicazione e rappresentazione dei dati.
Il sistema SkyNode consente di:
• rilevare la posizione istantanea del velivolo con
possibilità di tracciamento e trasmissione bilaterale
dati/messaggi (SkyNode S100);
• rilevare la posizione istantanea del velivolo con
possibilità di tracciamento e comunicazione
satellitare tra equipaggio/centro di controllo
effettuabile direttamente in cuffia tramite ICS di
bordo e pannellino di comando e controllo installato
sul cruscotto (SkyNode S200).
Il sistema GeoNode consente di:
• rilevare la posizione istantanea del mezzo navale o
terrestre con possibilità di tracciamento e
trasmissione bilaterale dati/messaggi.
Ambedue i sistemi si avvalgono del software LWS Sentinel
che permette di controllare via web i dati della telemetria e di
rappresentarli sui supporti informatici più opportuni a seconda
delle esigenze.
Qualora la riservatezza delle informazioni trattate sia un
requisito, esiste la possibilità di inviare tutti i dati direttamente
dal satellite al server predeterminato dall’utilizzatore, senza
transito attraverso la rete.
Le apparecchiature, grazie alla certificazione EASA Parte 21
posseduta dalla Società, vengono fornite di bollettino di
installazione EASA per il tipo di velivolo a cui sono destinate,
hanno un costo iniziale e di esercizio assolutamente
concorrenziale rispetto ad analoghi prodotti esistenti sul
mercato ed offrono la possibilità di:
• effettuare un monitoraggio continuo della posizione
dei propri velivoli, mezzi navali e/o terrestri con
evidenti vantaggi ai fini del coordinamento e della
sicurezza;
• consentire comunicazioni dirette con l’equipaggio in
zone/aree geografiche dove non esista altra
possibilità di collegamento.
