Connected Operations New

TAK & FLUXER interoperability.

SnowOps / WinterOPS now supports TAK and Fluxer - move location, mission, and collaboration data between plow crews, command dashboards, TAK Server, and FLUXER without breaking the offline-first field workflow.

What’s new
  • TAK Server - Cursor-on-Target, PLI / BFT, markers, geofences, emergencies
  • FLUXER - channels, messages, webhook-driven operational notifications
  • Secure paths - mutual TLS on field devices; credentials stay on the API gateway for the web

Shared operating picture

From field crew to command - one picture

The mobile app can connect directly to TAK. The web app uses a protected API gateway, while FLUXER extends operational events into team messaging and collaboration channels.

PLI & Blue Force Tracking

Publish crew position, course, speed, callsign, and team identity. Display incoming TAK participants beside native SnowOps vehicle tracking.

Markers & Geofences

Send and receive point markers, circular zones, and polygon boundaries as CoT while preserving independent map-layer visibility.

Emergency Workflows

Activate, cancel, display, and notify on ATAK-compatible emergency event categories across mobile and browser operations.

GeoChat & FLUXER

Broadcast or destination-specific GeoChat, and route operational notifications into FLUXER channels, messages, or webhook-driven workflows.

TAK Data Packages

Search, upload, download, install, and activate compatible package content - GeoJSON, KML/KMZ, MBTiles, and GeoPackage map layers.

Certificate Enrollment

Create the private key and CSR locally, enroll through TAK Marti endpoints, validate the certificate chain, and store credentials outside browser reach.

Connection model

Two secure paths

Each client uses the connection model appropriate to its security boundary.

1. Field device

MAUI location, markers, chat, emergencies, and package content from the cab or tablet.

2. TAK transport

Direct TCP, mutual-TLS TCP, or UDP Cursor-on-Target exchange with TAK Server / OpenTAK.

3. Web gateway + FLUXER

API owns TAK credentials and relays CoT over SignalR; FLUXER channels carry selected ops updates to teams.

TAK operations

Situational awareness that stays with winter ops

  • CoT stream parsing New

    Stale-event handling, Marti contacts, and situational-awareness history.

  • Independent TAK BFT overlay New

    Show TAK participants beside SnowOps plow and airport fleets without merging layers.

  • TAK Server & OpenTAK

    Compatible workflows with permission-scoped view, send, and manage actions.

  • Raw validated CoT extension

    Extension point for custom CoT types when your mission requires it.

FLUXER collaboration

Route ops events into team channels

  • Versioned REST API New

    Channel and message workflows with webhook-compatible operational notifications.

  • Cloud or self-hosted New

    Deploy FLUXER where your security policy requires - credentials stay backend-held.

  • Alerts, dispatch & field events

    Connect storm alerts, dispatch changes, and field emergencies into collaboration channels.

Why it matters for winter ops

Municipalities and contractors already on TAK can keep their common operating picture - SnowOps adds plow tracking, dispatch, and ArcGIS sync without forcing a separate silo.

Connect every operational team

Bring GIS, TAK situational awareness, and FLUXER collaboration into one field-to-command winter ops platform.
