ARGOS satellite tracking
Application under development!
This application is under development to make it fit in with the new site. While full functionality should still exist, the page layouts may appear incorrectly. We're working on integrating this application in to the new site and will have it ready as soon as we can.
Profiles
Profiles are control metadata that subset the data from a deployment (or part thereof) of a Position Tracking Terminal (PTT) attached to a platform. That platform can be an animal or inanimate object such as an Automatic Weather Station. The majority of the data that can be accessed here is for animal tracking.
