# On-Trip Data Integration

Most importantly, using the app while on a business trip provides a number of functions that improve the monitoring and alerting and thus increase travel safety significantly.

**EMERGENCY BUTTON**

In critical situations, the traveller can push the emergency button and will be automatically connected with the Operations Centre. To make assistance fast and precise the person can **share his/her exact location with EXOP**, so they can localise the person and determine appropriate assistance measures.

This feature also serves as **silent alarm** for travellers that are in a life-threatening situation and not able to speak on the phone. Simply pushing the button "call for assistance" will immediately transmit the traveller’s location to the Operation Centre and trigger subsequent emergency procedures.

**CHECK-IN**

The check-in feature is the easiest and most accurate way to **submit the current position** of a traveller to the platform and integrate the person, based on the name, phone number and email address of his user profile, into the monitoring and alerting. The user will be monitored at exactly the geo-coordinates sent by the last check-in. Managers can see the traveller and his position in the travel monitor. After eight hours with no updated position, the monitoring will be terminated.

This function is a huge advantage in cases where position data are rather inaccurate, e.g. if PNR travel data only provide the location of the arrival airport. Also, if there has been no time for regular travel registration (manual, calendar or PNR registration) at all, with the push of a button, the traveller is being taken care of by the platform’s monitoring and alerting after only a few moments.

**ACTIVE LOCATION ALERTING**

Travellers using the native app can transfer their **movement and location data** directly to the platform with their express consent. Based on the movement data of the traveller’s smartphone, the travel manager can follow the live-position of the traveller. **This way travellers can also be monitored on the route and on the move**.

This option is specifically useful for overland transport, e.g. from the airport to a remote project location. Also, in cases where travellers and expats have a commuting routine in higher-risk areas, the active location alerting increases their safety considerably.
