Nice pop recently in Teleglobe, what's up with that? As a Canadian, of course, you must know everything there is to know about Canadian stocks.<g> Subject 15752 Interesting recent story on Teleglobe and Orbcomm: siliconinvestor.com >>DULLES, Va., Sep 11, 2000 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ -- ORBCOMM Global, L.P. (ORBCOMM), the first commercial provider of global low-Earth orbit (LEO) satellite data communication services, today announced that 18 crew members aboard the fishing vessel, Don Gregorio, were rescued last week, 72 nautical miles off the coast of Chile using the ORBCOMM satellite network. The ORBCOMM system was used to transmit the vessel's position, and the MARIMSYS Bridge VIGIA fleet plotting software was used to graphically plot the vessel's coordinates, helping to facilitate the rescue of the crew. Don Gregorio, a 165-foot modern fishing vessel based in the port of Talcahuano, Chile, issued a "MAYDAY" distress call at approximately 7:00 pm on September 5. Water began to rapidly flood the engine room, and the pumps were failing. Don Gregorio had been routinely emitting precise latitude and longitude coordinates several times an hour from the MARIMSYS Vessel Monitoring System (VMS) on board the vessel. These routine position reports and system status messages are transmitted through the ORBCOMM network to a shoreside data processing facility managed by DAMOS SudAmerica, ORBCOMM's South American service distribution partner. The data is then delivered to the Chilean Coast Guard Marine Data Center in Valparaiso, Chile, for monitoring by the Chilean Coast Guard and Fishing Authority. The reports are graphically displayed for Chilean fishing and emergency personnel using the MARIMSYS VIGIA software's data processing and electronic charting capability. In the case of emergencies, the vessel's positions are made available over the Coast Guard's Search and Rescue Response Network.<<
