Satellite communications can benefit a wide variety of industries, as it can provide reliable communication capacity across the globe, even in remote locations. We have discussed before a few industries that can benefit from satellite communications, and today we want to discuss a few more. Due to the mobile nature of these businesses and workers being located in very isolated places, satellite communications can be especially helpful for these industries.
Transportation
When you’re in the transportation industry, consistent communications can help you maintain a competitive edge. Make sure your operators are safe and know where your vehicles, vessels and cargo are at all times to streamline operations and keep track of your assets.
Satellite can provide real-time GPS tracking to make ensure you know where your deliveries are and estimate when they will arrive at their destination. You can connect with your people or fleet anywhere on the globe, whether you need voice connectivity or data. Fleet operators have access to messaging, traffic and weather reports and work orders so that business runs smoothly from any location. You can also use push-to-talk options so that workers in the field can stay in touch with dispatchers.
Oil and Gas
In the oil and gas industries, workers are often in very remote locations, doing hazardous work. Satellite can encourage better morale by providing broadband Internet and calling capabilities even for off-shore platforms or distant sites. This keeps employees in touch with their families, as well as their home offices. Geologists and geophysicists often need to work in remote locations to appraise prospects. Satellite can help in this effort by offering portable phone and Internet systems to aid in their work. And of course, worker safety is key, so satellite solutions can provide push-to-talk, GPS tracking and emergency notifications.
Mining
Mining is also another potentially hazardous work environment in which workers are often in remote locations and need to communicate. Satellite helps keep miners at these worksites consistently connected to their home office to improve safety. GPS tracking and panic buttons are available on portable devices so that you can track your people’s location and know if they are in trouble. Exploration professionals can transmit their data to the home office in real time to help ensure smooth operations on the worksite. The mining site and exploration professionals can transmit data through BGAN and VSAT technology, which provide them with broadband Internet connectivity virtually anywhere on the planet. Connectivity also improves morale in this industry, as workers are able to talk to their families through telephone services or through video chat provided by satellite signal.
Virtually any industry in which you need Internet and phone connectivity in remote places, the ability to communicate at the push of a button, GPS location services and the ability to transmit data can benefit from satellite technology. Even businesses that don’t typically send workers far out into the field can still benefit from more reliable coverage. When you compare the safety features, convenience and reliability of satellite communications with traditional cellular service, there really is no comparison.
