Hot on the Heels of the MDR with GPS

MDR presenter Andreas Mann and his team will visit all 851 municipalities of the state of Saxony-Anhalt during the month of September, and all web users can participate in real time.

No matter where the „Mann-O-Mann“ vehicle is located – be it at a kindergarten, a bakery or a market square – it transmits a GPS signal to the MDR website every 100 seconds. With the aid of this geo tracking, anyone can follow Andreas Mann’s path through Saxony-Anhalt on a map.
