A service to record any route taken with one’s mobile device.
The function involves activating the recording of the route, and periodically accumulating GPS points. In addition, it is possible to insert POIs (shops, restaurants, etc.). The route is saved in a standard format that can be viewed on map applications, such as those of Google services.
The various departure/arrival/interest points report position data (date, time, speed, altitude, distance in metres from the starting point) in order to allow total and partial calculation of the route, as well as calorie consumption, depending on the type of activities performed (walking, running, cycling).

Compass: positioning options.

The compass centres the detected position of your mobile device and allows it to be displayed on a map:
ON ME shows the area where your mobile device is located (Here you are)
ON YOUR ROUTE shows the route you have taken since the start of your registration.

Options: Function management menu.

Pressing ‘Record Route’ starts the recording of your GPS position.
A popup appears with a prompt to enter your weight in kilograms so that the calories consumed can be calculated.
Useful information in case of leisure activities, depending on the type of activity performed (walking, running, cycling).
Each time you press the button, the system records a new route and the previous one is deleted (see save route).

Press the ‘stop recording’ button to end the current recording or return to the Functions menu by pressing on the Viasat logo in the top left corner.
The ‘continue recording’ button allows you to resume recording without deleting the previous track (if there is no route, the button coincides with the record route).

The hide/show route button allows the track to be displayed or obscured on the screen, without interrupting tracking. The system allows the last route to be saved, using the ‘Save Route’ button.
The files, in KML format, are available for download on a PC by connecting the phone to iTunes and selecting Viasat appS.

The Apps area contains all saved routes and can be used to store or delete them.
During registration, it is possible to insert points of interest using pop-ups, by pressing the “insert point of interest” button on the Options menu.
The marked points are fixed on the route, symbolised by the ‘little hand’, and then available on a downloadable map.
It is possible to interact with the touch screen of one’s smartphone, by pressing on the little hand displayed, to review all the details of all the previously inserted points of interest.
In addition, using touch on the points (departure, arrival, interest), a popup appears showing information on the date, time, speed, altitude, elapsed time and distance in metres from the starting point and the calories consumed since the start.
The route saved on the PC using Itunes shows the same information at all location points

It is a service in cooperation with CCISS – Viaggiare Informati.

Traffic information (traffic, work interruptions, accidents, closed roads, etc.) is automatically updated every time the map moves from the previous position.

Compass: positioning options.
About me: shows the area where your mobile device is located (Here you are)
On the street: shows the area of the previously searched street, if it exists.
Options: feature management menu.
Update street situation: performs a manual update of the street information.

Address search: inserting street name and city searches the street in Google systems.
If the search is successful, the street is displayed on the map.

Enable/Disable tracking: Enables (or disables) the tracking function,  the user’s position will always be visible on the screen.

This is used to activate a geolocalised emergency call to the Viasat Operations Centre with immediate and punctual identification of the caller.
It is necessary to press the red “SOS” button for at least 3 seconds.
If the Customer is unable to speak, the Centre can recognise the caller and locate the mobile device.
In addition, the position of the mobile device is updated at the Operations Centre throughout the call.

Therefore, Viasat operators can independently and precisely determine its location (e.g. how far down the motorway it is).
This makes it possible to provide immediate assistance and, if necessary, send help to the scene.

You will be able to view statistical data on the use of your vehicle:

• the total kilometres are driven;
• the percentage of mileage travelled on urban roads, motorways, and extra-urban routes;
• the percentage of km travelled during daytime or night-time hours;
• the Viasat statistical risk index (if applicable).

Premium functions are linked to the type of contract subscribed to.
In addition, if the Viasat device is linked to a telematics policy of the Behaviour Profile type (Driving Style), the Statistics function is not available because it is necessary to consult own data on the Insurance Company’s website.

PLEASE NOTE

Even if this app does not show the updated position of the vehicle, the Viasat Operations Centre, in the event of an emergency or need (e.g. theft), uses various security channels to ensure that the alarm is sent and to allow continuous tracking of the device on the vehicle, so as to facilitate precise localization.
