= OpenGeoSMS =

This is a simple format for encoding Latitude & Longitude into a text message (SMS/Email/Twitter).

It sends as a GoogleMaps URL (our implementation also supports OpenStreetMap).

* The LatLon can be manually copied to a GPS, if the recipient is on a non-SmartPhone or has no Internet access from that location.
* If they have a !SmartPhone then they can click on the URL to see the location being discussed on a map
* If they have the Android application then they can get additional functionality to support Incident Reporting, Task Dispatch & peer to peer Team Communications ("I am here", "Where are you?", "Let's meet here")

Android source is available on Github:
* https://github.com/SahanaOpenGeoSMS/Sahana_OpenGeoSMS
Binary:
* http://eden.sahanafoundation.org/downloads/SahanaGeoSMSerV2.apk

Our support is in {{{modules/s3/s3msg.py}}}:
* {{{msg.prepare_opengeosms(self, location_id, code="S", map="google", text="")}}}
 * S = Sahana
 * ST = Sahana Task Dispatch
 * SI = Sahana Incident Report

This will be useful for:
 * [Deployment/Bombeiros Bombeiros]
 * [BluePrintCERT CERT]
