SkyRouter
SkyRouter is Blue Sky Network's cloud-based web portal and mapping system. Designed and operated by Blue Sky Network, it communicates with remote devices over the Iridium Satellite Network and provides tracking, communications, and management of globally dispersed assets from any internet-connected device without the need of additional hardware and software. Features of SkyRouter include SMS support, customizable email subject formatting, alert information, and alert previews. Event notifications can be sent via SMS from SkyRouter to any cellular phone on any network. The SkyRouter alerting system allows fleet managers to customize pertinent asset information directly to smart phones and tablets as necessary.
Through SkyRouter, asset movement can be tracked on a global map made possible by communication of the transceiver hardware with the Iridium satellite network. The SkyRouter web portal allows its users to see the location of a particular asset, follow its progress and note important events, such as an emergency situation. When Polar First Helicopter attempted to circumnavigate the globe by way of the North and South poles in 2003, the expedition ended with their helicopter crashing into an ice sheet. The emergency crews were able to use SkyRouter and Blue Sky Network's system to pinpoint the exact position of the downed helicopter, saving the lives of the crew members.
SkyRouter also enables pilots and operators to communicate by sending two-way messages. Both the communications solutions and global tracking are made possible by transceivers that are installed in the asset. The transceivers both transmit and receive data signals, constantly updating the position and events associated with the assets. In aviation applications, Automated Flight Following via SkyRouter allows the transmission of satellite messages from aircraft to dispatchers on the ground in the form of special events reports, such as updates on take-offs and landings, as well as telemetric data reports, and emergency location.

In order to run the daily operations in Brazil, sister company Blue Sky Network Brazil Comunicação por Satélite was established in Alphaville, just outside São Paulo.
