Who? Where? When? Why? What? At the convergence of location-based services, mobility, machine telemetry, and social networks, Geosocial Systems deliver a single-window into your physical and digital presence. Fusing multiple technologies into a focused solution brings people, assets, and events together around a common location. This increases social dynamics, improves realtive interaction, and increases collective situational awareness. The increased sense of 'connectedness' that results from geosocial deployment actively promotes collaboration and the sharing of relevant materials amongst participants, leading to a greater willingness to contribute and better awareness and co-ordination as a result.

Is this really useful?

Geosocial systems provide the opportunity to assemble a collection of individual perspectives providing a coherent, de-biased understanding of any operational environment. The resulting 'collective intelligence', produced and available for consumption by all participants, provides a ground truth against which plans, actions, and decisions may be synchronised to ensure best effect. Critical areas where this capability is applicable include:

1. Asset and Personnel Planning and Tasking
2. Performance Management and Reporting
3. Shared Operations Pictures
4. Disaster Response
5. Crisis/Incident Management
6. 'Crowd-Sourced' Human Intelligence

Is this real?

Yes. We have built several geosocial systems over the last three years. Available functionality includes mobile user monitoring, asset performance reporting, integration of sensor data, social network services, microblog messaging, complex event detection, alarm and alert services, and geospatial visualisation and analysis. Our geosocial systems are deployed as services, allowing additional functionality to be integrated as requirements dictate.

If this is relevant to your organisation, we look forward to answering any questions you may have.
