Following a trip
What the people at home see.
Open the link you were sent. No app and no account needed (unless the trip is shared with approved people only).
- The map: the planned route, the line travelled so far, check-ins along it, and the dot.
- Seen 22 min ago, via inReach: when their tracker last sent a position, and which one. Satellite trackers send every few minutes, not every second.
- Weather where they are, for their kind of trip (the swell for a rower, the wind at the summit for a climber), with sunrise and sunset, government warnings, and alerts for the dangers ahead.
- Progress: the day, the leg, and the distance covered on legs with a route.
- Check-ins: messages they send from the device, newest first.
The page updates by itself every minute.
