GeoChat is a flexible open source group communications technology that lets team members interact to maintain shared geospatial awareness of who is doing what where -- over any device, on any platform, over any network. GeoChat allows you and your team to stay in touch one another in a variety of ways: over SMS, over email, and on the surface of a map in a web browser. Whether you are sitting at a computer with a high-speed Internet connection, or on the go with your mobile phone, GeoChat let you react to events on the ground with maximum agility, forming cross-organizational virtual teams on the fly, linking field to headquarters, and keeping everyone on your team connected, in sync, and aware of who is doing what, and where.

NGOs, disaster responders, public health officers, social enterprises, corporate world and general consumers (in that order of priority).

We are right now working mainly in Southeast Asia, but the audience is not restricted to that region.

We are looking for a modern and bold logo that help us create a product identity. It needs to convey the idea of group communication and coordination, tough-environment ready, light and easy to use.
