LT-3100S Integration with Falcon Mega Track

The Lars Thrane LT-3100S satellite communication system is integrated with Falcon Mega Track (FMT), a web and mobile-based vessel tracking platform developed by Falcon Mega Solutions. This integration enables vessels to transmit tracking and Ship Security Alert System (SSAS) data into a unified, graphical environment designed for continuous ship tracking, fleet monitoring, and operational visibility. By consolidating satellite-generated position and security messages into Falcon Mega Track, shore teams, ship owners, and system integrators gain a single operational view of vessel activity, supporting informed decision-making, compliance, and enhanced maritime security.

The Limitation

(Without FMT Integration)

When operating independently, the LT-3100S has limitations for shore-based operations:

 Position reports and SSAS alerts are delivered

  • A limited number of email recipients can be configured due to airtime constraints
  • Each additional recipient increases satellite airtime consumption
  • Onboard visit required to add, remove, or modify SSAS notification recipients
  • No graphical visualization of vessel position or fleet activity
  • Limited situational awareness for shore teams during security or operational events

LT-3100S After Integration with Falcon Mega Track

When LT-3100S messages are routed into Falcon Mega Track, satellite data becomes part of a live, interactive operational environment.

  • Graphical vessel positions are displayed on interactive maps instead of plain text messages
  • SSAS alerts visualized on maps, enabling faster assessment and response
  • Save satellite airtime by configuring a single email address on the LT-3100S for tracking and SSAS
  • Configure unlimited recipient contacts (Email, SMS, and WhatsApp) within Falcon Mega Track remotely
  • Fleet-wide visibility, showing multiple vessels simultaneously

Shore teams gain real-time situational awareness rather than reactive message handling

Enhanced Situational Awareness for Shore Teams

With Falcon Mega Track, the shore office gains access to advanced navigational and environmental context:

  • Nautical charts with navigational details
  • Depth, sounding, coastlines, bathymetry, buoys, and lights.
  • Traffic Separation Schemes (TSS), submarine cables, wind parks, etc.
  • Live weather maps for real-time conditions
  • Weather forecasts to support passage planning and risk mitigation
  • Access to Distance Measure Tool

This intelligence enables proactive monitoring rather than reactive response.

Airtime Optimization

Satellite airtime is a critical operational cost factor for vessels operating on the Iridium network.

The Challenge with Standalone Configuration

Every added email address requires additional bytes in the transmitted message. As the number of recipients grows, so does the cumulative satellite cost.

  • Each notification recipient configured in LT-3100S increases satellite airtime consumption
  • Modifying recipient lists requires onboard configuration
  • This approach limits scalability and makes cost control more difficult for fleet operators.

How Falcon Mega Track Optimizes Airtime

When integrated with Falcon Mega Track, the LT-3100S can be configured with a single destination address.

From there:

  • Falcon Mega Track distributes notifications internally
  • Unlimited recipients can be managed within the platform
  • Alerts can be sent via email, SMS, or other channels
  • Recipient lists can be modified remotely without onboard intervention

By centralizing distribution within Falcon Mega Track, satellite transmission size is minimized, directly reducing airtime consumption while improving operational flexibility.

Core Capabilities

Falcon Mega Track transforms LT-3100S satellite messages into actionable operational intelligence, enabling efficient fleet monitoring and security management.

Route Monitoring Tool can be accessed in Falcon Mega Track through Iridium Edge Solar.

Graphical Vessel Tracking

Monitor individual vessels or entire fleets on a unified graphical map with access to multiple map layers, improving visibility and operational context.

Optimized Satellite Airtime Usage

Reduce Iridium airtime consumption by routing LT-3100S tracking & SSAS messages through Falcon Mega Track. By configuring a single destination address on the LT-3100S & managing unlimited recipients within the platform.

Why Integrate LT-3100S with Falcon Mega Track?

Communication Hardware Enhanced by Operational Software

The LT-3100S delivers reliable satellite communication for maritime safety and security. Falcon Mega Track adds the operational intelligence layer that transforms satellite messages into structured, visual, and actionable information.

Without a platform, position reports and SSAS alerts remain isolated messages. With Falcon Mega Track, they become part of a centralized monitoring and decision-support system, enabling faster response, better coordination, and improved operational control.

This combination allows ship owners and shore teams to transition from basic satellite communication to continuous, insight-driven fleet management—without changing onboard hardware.
