Active trip tracking
During an active outing, the app records position, status, and last successful upload, with weak-coverage tolerance.
Safer outings - never completely alone
Track the outing. Share confidence. Alert when it matters.
Ferdasvenn supports people outdoors with active tracking, emergency mode, and controlled links for emergency contacts, family, or operators.
- Active trip tracking
- Hold-to-SOS
- Private link sharing
Deliberate SOS mode
SOS uses a press-and-hold activation, prioritizes location updates, and makes coordinates easy to read.
Controlled sharing
Emergency contacts and operators only get access through time-bounded links and approved sharing modes.
Why Ferdasvenn
Telling someone where you are going should be easy - and useful if something happens.
Norwegian weather, sea, mountains, and mobile coverage can turn a simple outing quickly. Ferdasvenn makes common safety advice actionable: someone knows where you went, can see the latest trail, and gets help assessing the situation before critical resources are used.
Before the outing
Plan outing type, start point, expected return, equipment, and weather assessment so both participant and contact share the same picture.
During the outing
Share location in a controlled way with a chosen contact, operator, or party so people can find each other in fog, bad weather, or weak coverage.
If something goes wrong
SOS, trail history, battery status, vessel data, and clear escalation steps help the contact explain the situation precisely.
An emergency contact who can act
Ferdasvenn turns the advice to inform someone into a concrete flow: a secure link, latest position, trail history, and a call script for emergency services.
Built for tourist fishing and small operators
Boat rentals and activity hosts can connect guests to a trip period, vessel, base location, and safety information without building their own response system.
For visitors without local knowledge
The app can help people prepare for Norwegian conditions with weather checks, packing guidance, safety advice, and clear route information.
A simple flight recorder for outings
The trail shows where a person or vessel was, when SOS was activated, and whether movement continued afterward until contact was lost.
Triage before escalation
The emergency contact is guided to attempt contact, separate technical trouble from danger, and then involve the right help when needed.
Routes, maps, and trip logs
Users can follow route plans, see terrain context, and record distance, duration, elevation profile, and later training data such as energy use.
For anglers and outdoor users
Ferdasvenn is built for outings where weather, coverage, local knowledge, and fast location sharing can turn uncertainty into action.
For operators
Rental hosts and activity operators get a practical tool for guests, vessels, safety rules, tracking links, and incidents.
When you receive a tracking link
Emergency contacts open a secure web page, not an app install.
The tracking page only shows the level of access granted by the person on the outing. Emergency-only links can stay locked until SOS, while live tracking can show latest position, breadcrumbs, and status.
Preview before access
A link can show who invited you and what kind of access you are being asked to accept.
SOS first
During an active emergency, coordinates, last known position, and practical action options are prioritized.
Automatically bounded
Access can be revoked, expire when the trip ends, or close after the safety window has passed.
Ferdasvenn is a safety aid, not a replacement for emergency services, seamanship, local knowledge, or responsible trip planning.
