Reporting Services 

A Nautic Alert reporting service is required for device communications and alerts to be received.  
Currently, three reporting service options are available from: 

https://www.nearshorenetworks.com/menu/activate-services/nautic-alerts-activation 

Basic Reporting Service 

A basic reporting service includes vessel tracking with an automatic location update interval of one hour 
when moving, and up to 150 on-demand requests, which can include real-time location, 
arming/disarming, dc trends, and more discussed in th

Remote Access

 section of this document. 

Enhanced Reporting Service 

An enhanced reporting service includes vessel tracking with an automatic location update interval of 
thirty minutes when moving, global geofencing, and up to 250 on-demand requests, which can include 
real-time location, arming/disarming, dc trends, and more discussed in th

Remote Access

 section of 

this document. 

Global Geofencing 

With global geofencing, multiple geofence boundaries can be drawn on a Google Map interface on the 

Nautic Alert Mobile App

, and the geofence data will upload and sync with the device making it fully 

aware of the boundaries.  This makes it possible for VTracker to notify in real time when entering or 
exiting a geofence boundary, including the name of the boundary.  See th

Global Geofencing

 section
