A better tomorrow for reindeer herding
Reindeer trackingthat also worksin the field
Porokartta is an easy-to-use tracking app that shows your devices in real time on the map.
The app is available on Google Play and the App Store.
Why Porokartta
Real-time tracking
See where your devices are on the map, wherever you are.
More efficient herding
Less driving out in the terrain, more time for the work itself.
Built for the North
Designed for long distances and demanding conditions.
In the field without a network
Downloaded maps keep working even with no connection.
Everything essential in one view
See your devices on one map
Follow your reindeer on the map — in the browser and in the mobile app. Filter, view groups, and see what matters at a glance.
Search
Find a device by name, EUI code, or customer name. Map points are searchable too.
Groups
Share reindeer within a group using a share code, and choose whose reindeer appear on your map.
Base stations
See base station status: how many are online and when they were last seen.
Filters
Narrow the view by position age, category, device type, or handling state.
Live location
Follow device movement in real time and share your own position with the group.
History
Play back a device's route and see when it arrived at a given area.
Base stations and coverage
The base station network in the field
Devices send their position through LoRaWAN base stations. If a base station goes offline, devices near it may stop updating until it recovers. The app shows this directly.
Wide base station network
Coverage across Finland.
Works on the fells too
Dependable connection in remote areas.
A network still growing
Better coverage as the network develops.
Modern technology
LoRaWAN + NB-IoT
The devices use two different radio technologies. LoRaWAN reaches far on very little power; NB-IoT relies on the mobile network. Together they cover situations where either alone would not.
LoRaWAN
- Long range
- Very low power consumption
- Works in remote areas
NB-IoT
- Broad coverage
- Reliable connection
- Works in demanding conditions too
