Air Tracker©
RAM
Systems, LLC's Air Tracker program,
developed with the knowledge derived from well over 20 years of
helicopter experience, is a software program that puts ease of use and
practicality as its number one priorities.
RAM
Systems, LLC emerges into a mapping
software industry with the confidence of providing a service that is uniquely
simple yet effective. It has been created to bypass the unnecessary
features and focus on the needs of the operator in the helicopter.
The
diversity of the Air Tracker program is a strength of the program and reflects RAM System's business beliefs. "We are a small company that wants to provide
specialized products that fit the needs of each customer individually," Jill
Johnson founder and CEO. That is the advantage of doing business with RAM
Systems, the programs are built and updated around the customer and in the case
of Air Tracker this includes tailoring the program around the type of map each
company requests.
Capabilities of Air Tracker©:
 | New:
Find Address Feature |
| Base unit loads in background topographic maps when
the Air Tracker system is started, but these can be
substituted for any background map the client wants.
 |
New:
RAM Systems has created
Seamless Sectionals that are FAA approved! |
|
| Contains
the GNIS list of geographic names from the USGS topos, so the operator can
find a geographic feature such as a stream, peak, airport, etc. and have the
map center on it. |
| New:
Temporary Flight Restrictions (TFR) insert options can
quickly mark a no-fly zone on the map. |
| Operators can choose latitude/longitude coordinates in decimal degree,
degree/minutes, or degree/minute/seconds and have the map center on the
location. |
| Air Tracker allows
the operator to add coordinate points to a custom list insuring that the
points remain on the map with a label. |
| The
custom list continually updates each location with a distance and bearing from
your current location. |
| Operators
can turn on recording and create a text file of the aircraft’s track.
|
| Air
Tracker provides toggle switches via the number keys to add attribute
information to the track, or to nest points along the route.
| New:
Name the different switches, so your GIS
Technician automatically has the key for each point. |
|
| The polygon sketch feature computes acreage and saves
as a retrievable map layer/Shape file. |
| Automatically converts
the text file of a flight into an ESRI Shape file
for use in other GIS programs. |
| Additional map
layers can be loaded onto the map. |
| Air
Tracker can be adapted to work with any NMEA compliant GPS unit. |
| Real-time downlink capable. |
| Comprises a single unit, travels with operator from
aircraft to aircraft. |
| Transfer map and region data among aircrafts via
satellite or cellular phone or radio to eliminate errors and inefficiencies.
