Abstract
A system and method for tracking subscribing users and time periods input by users for a specific future event occurrence. Tracking is determined by a computer network based system which allows for users to input details of specific upcoming events including but not limited to, time of departure, location, and estimated time of arrival. If the user does not confirm their arrival with the service provider server during a determined time interval, user input emergency contacts, relative to the individual event being tracked, will be contacted to alert of a possible problem. GPS location via a locating device can also be integrated to give the emergency contacts the exact location of the user.
