Abstract
The present invention relates to a safety system for outdoor activities, integrating front-end software, such as a mobile application, and a server. This system allows users to schedule alerts including information about their route and estimated time of return. If the alert is not deactivated at the scheduled time, alert messages are automatically sent to trusted contacts, with the option to include the user's last known location. Furthermore, the system can notify nearby users in case of distress. Alerts and location information can be updated via mobile data networks or satellite links, ensuring continuous communication even in the absence of cellular coverage. The system also offers the ability to send alerts at any time, inform emergency services, and notify nearby users.Finally, the application optimizes battery usage, enhancing its usefulness and efficiency. This invention represents a reliable solution for improving the safety of outdoor activities by ensuring the transmission of critical information to trusted contacts, emergency services, and nearby users.
