• Annotates the map with events
• Custom log entry can be made at any time
• Review the sortie in detail on the device or share via e-mail and import into external mapping tools.
• Universal app runs on both the iPhone/iPod and iPad

In the Air

MISSION OBSERVERS no longer have to write down sortie events. Setup your buttons to capture standard events like: In Grid, Ops Normal Checkin, RTB, Investigate, Divert, Photo, Mark Target, Weather, Communications Relay, etc. Observers will appreciate the decrease in their workload so they can focus more outside the cockpit and spend more time on sortie objectives. Theyll finish the mission with a complete and accurate log of mission events that will impress any customer or debriefer and help them make better decisions to complete the mission.

MISSION CHECK PILOTS and INSTRUCTOR PILOTS can use it during flight to take notes and provide real-time feedback. When the flight is complete, the entire flight can be reviewed without having to remember or write down what happened.

On the Ground
=================

GROUND TEAM LEADERS and GROUND TEAM MEMBERS will utilize the logging of their track and the ability to take notes along the way. Easily mark events like where beacons were picked up, where clues were found, when communications were made, etc.

=================
At the Debriefing
=================

INCIDENT COMMANDERS, AIR OPERATIONS BRANCH DIRECTORS and CREW MEMBERS will love how it enhances debriefings by graphically displaying the route taken during the mission and annotating all mission events. The map can be zoomed in and analyzed in a number of ways. The log can be e-mailed and imported into various mapping tools like Google Earth, opened directly in compatible apps on the iPad, or exported in standard GPX and KML formats. Air Sorties and Ground Missions are colored differently so combined tracks can be easily distinguished.
