If it would be useful , it can be added to the membership system
easily. It would of course be optional.

In answer to the original question, one good feature of the SSA
(American) website is that the "tracking URL" of members is available
online. It is not limited to any particular service, although most
pilots use SPOT. If you know that Person X took off from your site
this morning, you can find their tracking link through the SSA and go
immediately to their service's map page to see where they are.
This also appears to be the main source of GlidePortAero's database.
They may have just copied the SSA database to get the name and contest
ID for all the tracks that they show on their maps.
Perhaps the GFA can add this to the membership system? I publish my
SPOT link on my personal website but not many people would think of
looking there in an emergency.

Hi All,
Have been thinking about our need for a programme that will give spot
info primarily in the event of a need for SAR.
Has anyone had success with something that offers real time data and
that doesn't need sms which would become expensive with regular
monitoring?
