Coastal & Offshore
Marine operators need chart context and positioning even when offshore connectivity drops. Farun brings nautical layers, dynamic speed-based isochrones, and precision GNSS to a rugged, standalone edge device.

The Problem
Operating on the water requires a completely different spatial context. Standard mapping apps lose signal quickly offshore, and traditional marine chartplotters lock your data into expensive, closed-loop ecosystems.
Most modern mobile navigation apps are useless beyond a few miles offshore. Map layers, routing, and safety parameters disappear exactly when the environment becomes most unpredictable.
Dedicated marine GPS units are expensive, proprietary, and difficult to integrate with other operational software. Replacing them with something open and capable is overdue.
Without real-time calculation of your speed and surrounding geographical boundaries, knowing exactly how far a vessel can reach safely within a time limit is left to manual charting.
Harbour logistics teams, amphibious rescue units, and coastal researchers often have to run two entirely separate tracking systems for their road vs. water operations.
How Farun Helps
Every capability below runs on the GPS Navigator itself - no cloud, no subscription, no additional hardware. The device reads its own GNSS, renders its own charts, and computes reachability from its own speed data.
Nautical Cartography
Farun renders highly compressed offline marine vector layers. Access depth contours, navigation buoys, shipping lanes, and restricted area overlays instantly from the device's solid-state drive.
Dynamic Isochrones
Visualize a real-time, dynamic radius around your vessel based on your current GNSS speed (SOG). Know instantly if a destination is reachable within your timeframe.
Marine Waypoints
Plan complex routes across open water while our edge-compute engine automatically respects shallow water exclusions and mapped coastal boundaries.
Amphibious Operation
One device, two domains. Unclip the device from your 4x4, mount it on your vessel, and continue tracking without losing your GNSS lock or navigation state.
For Developers
The Farun location APIs are a separate developer product for teams building coastal management tools, harbour dispatch apps, and reachability platforms on top of the same spatial dataset that powers the GPS Navigator.
APIs are not required to use the GPS Navigator hardware. Available separately via RapidAPI.
