Ordnance Survey Grid Refs

SPoT only transmits GPS Lat/Lon decimal coordinates. If you are used to OS grid references Adventure Trading Ltd can add OSGB grid refs to all emails FOC or 13p per phone text. Instructions are included in the SPoT box.

Bespoke Maps

The SPoT basic service lets you email links and share Google Maps with your contacts. However this has some limitations in terms of how much data can be included and it's visual impact. If you would like a 'live' map of a special journey FOC for your family and friends, or would like to promote a group, competition or charity event with an interesting map on relevant websites then contact our Sales Dept.

See 'live' maps of The TGO Challenge with the 1st SPoT rescue in the UK, or Pete Macfarlane's epic West Highland Way, or the The Abbots Way rescue on Dartmoor - with more examples on our Tracking Maps page.
