What is a Sattelite Tracking for Lone Worker ?

Satellite tracking for lone workers uses satellite technology to monitor and protect employees in remote or no-coverage areas. This system ensures continuous communication, real-time location tracking, and emergency alerting, even in environments without cellular or Wi-Fi networks.

Satellite Tracking for Lone Workers 

People working alone in areas without a cellphone connection face significantly more dangers than those in an office setting. Satellite tracking for lone workers allows you toprotect your employees easily and securely, no matter where their job takes them. Our cost-effective app is simple to deploy and use and protects the privacy of your workers.  

Manual alarm

Trigger a discreet manual alarm directly from the Bivy Stick or the mobile App®.

Why Neovigie’s Satellite Solution Stands Out

Unlike other satellite SOS devices that provide connectivity only during an emergency check-in, our innovative use of Bivy Stick satellite technology offers advanced features and flexibility.

You can track your lone workers even when they’re in remote area swith no signal. The core of our solution is the seamless integration of the BivyStick satellite device with oursafety app, the VigieApp. This combination provides maximum protection withminimum constraints.

The VigieApp gives you advanced safety features to better protect your workers, but if necessary, the Bivy Stick can be used alone. Your employees will have reliable connectivity even in the most remote locations.

A Reliable Solution for Connectivity Challenges

With 5G connectivity and a phone in nearly every pocket, it’s easy to forget that some places still lack network access for smartphones. Neovigie’s satellite tracking solutions work even when network connections fail or don’t exist. 

You can count on satellite technology for uninterrupted communication and safety monitoring. Rest assured, knowing your workers are never truly alone.

Key Benefits of the Bivy Stick® and VigieApp® Integration

Working together, theBivy Stick and the VigieApp give you access to more safety features than either alone. Our advanced functionality and satellite technology include the following features:® et VigieApp® vous donnent accès à plus de fonctions desécurité que chacun d'entre eux. Notre fonctionnalité avancée et notretechnologie satellite comprennent les caractéristiques suivantes.

Automatic Network Switching for Uninterrupted Communication

In many cases, your workers aren’t consistently without cellphone coverage. Rather they’re often in areas where coverage is spotty and unreliable. When this happens, Neovigie automatically switches between cellular and satellite networks.
If a cellular network is available, the app will connect with it. If your employee moves out of range, the Bivy Stick will automatically connect to a satellite for workerprotection. 

This seamless transition lets your employees focus on their jobs without having to worry about whether they’re connected. No matter where they are, safety monitoring is enabled, and you’ll be quickly notified if there’s an incident.

Keeping Workers Safe Through Multi-Channel Notifications

Alarms triggered from VigieApp can be transmitted to supervisors  by Neovigie according to numerous communication channels : Voice call, SMS, Push notification, Email, remote monitoring system notification.

Multi-channel notifications make it possible to bring redundancy essential to a security system. Alarm notifications are not sent by the smartphone or the Biby Stick of the person in distress, which may not be in working condition, but exclusively by Neovigie servers that guarantee a high level of availability.

Fall detection

If the app detects a fall, it automatically triggers an alert so the supervisor can send help.détecte une chute, elle déclenche automatiquement une alerte pour que le superviseur puisse envoyer de l'aide.

Lifeline

A worker can set a countdown to send an alarm if they haven’t checked in by a specific time. This is ideal for high-risk tasks. compte à rebours pour envoyer une alarme s'il ne s'est pas présenté à une heure donnée. Cette fonction est idéale pour les tâches à haut risque.

Checkpoint

Workers can set check-in intervals that correlate with the nature of the tasks they’re working on frequently for dangerous jobs and less often when they’re working on more mundane tasks. déclaration de présences à intervalles de temps régulière pour indiquer à leurs superviseurs qu’ils vont bien. Les intervalles peuvent être défini en fonction de la nature des tâches qu'ils effectuent : fréquemment pour les tâches dangereuses et moins souvent pour les tâches plus banales. En cas de retard de déclaration une alarme sera déclenchée.

Standalone Functionality of Bivy Stick®

In the event an employee doesn’t have access to a smartphone, they can use the Bivy Stick as a standalone device. It can function independently in critical situations where smartphones aren't practical.

Workers can send an SOS through the BivyStick and share their location or check in directly—without needing a smartphone.

Even in the most remote locations, your worker is never completely cut off. Together, these features and the intuitive, user-friendly interface of the VigieApp give yourlone worker complete coverage and highly effective safety features that are simple to use. 

Advantages of the Iridium® Satellite Network

Neovigie uses the Iridium® satellite network, which is known for its 100% global coverage and super reliable data transmission.
