Satellite communications for council staff. AtlasNXT by Track24 brings messages, location updates, and supported Panic Alerts from compatible satellite devices into the same platform your team uses to coordinate support.

Example scenario

A council highways inspector working near Kielder, Northumberland, is delayed on a section of the journey without mobile coverage. A message from compatible satellite equipment confirms they are safe and asks for the next contact time. The council duty officer reviews the reported position, checks what support is needed, and agrees the next update with the service supervisor.

Satellite Communication for Local Government

Read satellite messages alongside location updates
Read a field message alongside the latest available location and timestamp. Authorised colleagues can review the conversation, check what help is needed, and coordinate the next action. A message can explain a delay, confirm welfare, or identify a concern that needs incident follow-up.
Stay in contact beyond mobile coverage
Rural inspections, isolated infrastructure work, and disruption to mobile service may justify compatible satellite equipment for selected teams. Messages from compatible devices join the duty team's workspace beside the council's other staff communications.
Connect remote updates with the response
Connect remote staff with the same workspace used by the duty team. Supported satellite messages, location reports, and Panic Alerts give colleagues a shared view of field updates, with Incident Management available for assistance that needs assigned tasks and a continuing record.
