The Tideland Signal GSM is a cost-effective method of real time remote monitoring via a simple text message or via an optional web based server. GSM is also available to monitor most competitors’ lanterns providing a fully universal system.

Text information is displayed in a user friendly format for mobile devices and contains GPS position, battery voltage, lantern status and auxiliary data. Warnings are immediately transmitted such as buoy off position, lantern fail or low battery voltage. The GSM can be configured to provide a report at any frequency although daily is the most common option. It can be manually polled at any time.

The optional web based system provides the added benefit of providing data on most Internet browsers. The user can visually see the Aids to Navigation (AtoN) asset position on a map or satellite image.
