The inReach Mini is a palm-sized satellite communication device that provides two-way text messaging via the global Iridium satellite network and the ability to trigger an interactive SOS to the 24/7 GEOS International Emergency Response Coordination Center. Administrators have access to a professional management website, enabling them to monitor and message lone workers in the field and track them in real time. (Note: inReach devices require an active satellite subscription to access the Iridium satellite network for tracking and messaging functions, including SOS.)
