How can we help?

Ground Control are Short Burst Data specialists, having worked with this airtime service since its conception. We send a lot of data through the Iridium satellite constellation, so we have access to competitively priced, flexible tariffs.

Currently, these plans are available for Rock tracking devices, but there are plans to expand this to any device that is integrated with the Cloudloop Tracking platform. If you’d like to talk to us about these plans, please email us at hello@groundcontrol.com or complete the form.
