Our Staff

North Star Science and Technology, LLC (North Star) provides tracking, two-way monitoring, biotelemetry, and messaging/data collection services via satellite networks, cellular GSM, and other leading wireless communication systems. North Star specializes in wildlife tracking and monitoring. Our mission is to provide the highest quality equipment with cutting-edge technology to our community, in order to better study and understand the world around us.

In 1984, North Star’s founders were the first in history to track a migratory bird using a space asset. This momentous achievement set them on a path to pave the way for the future of wildlife study. Thanks to our history as a company, North Star continues to revolutionize the way we interact with the world and to provide new possibilities for the future of data collection.

Combined with modern computer-based geographic information systems (GIS) and remote sensing data, North Star products and services collect and leverage vast amounts of information. This information can be used to identify and refine effective strategies to conserve the world’s biodiversity and habitats, to monitor the world’s oceans and atmosphere, and to better understand, manage, and track wild (and domestic) animals. Knowledge is, after all, power.
