Functional Specifications
  · SPOT features four key functions that enable users to send messages
      to friends, family or emergency responders, based upon varying levels of
      need:
          o Alert 9-1-1 ­ Dispatch emergency responders to your exact location
                     SPOT sends one message every 5 minutes until power is
                     depleted or 911 is cancelled.
          o Ask for Help ­ Request help from friends and family in your exact
              location
                     SPOT sends one message every 5 minutes for one hour or
                     until Help is cancelled
          o Check In ­ Let contacts know where you are and that you're okay
                     SPOT sends three identical messages to the SPOT service
                     for redundancy. The first of those three messages is
                     delivered.
          o Track Progress ­ Send and save your location and allow contacts
              to track your progress using Google MapsTM
                     SPOT sends one message every 10 minutes for 24 hours or
                     until SPOT is powered off.
