Mapping built for operational decision-making.
Log what matters. Coordinate action. Prove outcomes with audit-ready reporting.
Unify geospatial layers and rich location detail in one interactive map, with live GPS tracking of situations, crews and assets overlaid in real time, so teams can plan, coordinate, and respond as conditions change.
Locator is a geospatial platform with built-in GPS that provides a live common operating picture for teams coordinating people, assets, and activity across sites and jurisdictions. It can operate as a standalone product or integrate with Chronicler to link location intelligence directly to incidents, tasks, and operational decision-making.
Built for real operations, Locator combines real-time tracking with interactive mapping, allowing users to switch basemaps, toggle layers, search and interrogate features, and add operational context as conditions change. Whether you are managing day-to-day field work or a time-critical response, Locator keeps location, capability, and risk visible in one place.
What Locator Delivers
What Chronicler Delivers
Multi-source geospatial ingest & displayBring together common geospatial data types and services into one operational view, including a mix of basemaps and operational layers. Locator supports modern GIS workflows where layers may come from different systems, formats, and custodians.
- Basemap flexibility: Switch between satellite, street and terrain basemaps to suit the task
- Standards-aligned layer consuptmion: Load layers from common GIS services and file-based sources used across enterprise and government environments
- Operational overlays: Combine boundaries, precincts, exclusion zones, routes, and live assets in one map view
Interactive maps for decision-makingLocator is designed to be used actively, not just viewed. Users can control what they see and interrogate features without leaving the map.
- Layer control: Toggle visibility, ordering, and context layers based on role or activity
- Search and feature interrogation: Find locations, assets, and operational points quickly and view associated details
- Measurement tools: Measure distance and area to support planning, exclusion zones, and response coordination
Annotation & live operational markingAdd human context in real time with map markup and annotations so teams stay aligned as conditions change.
- Map annotation: Mark hazards, rendezvous points, cordons, access routes, and operational notes
- Ad hoc drawing tools: Create temporary zones, paths, and points for live operations
- Shared situational awareness: Align teams around the same marked-up map view
Crew GPS tracking with duress capabilityMaintain live visibility of crews, vehicles, and assets, with the operational controls teams need for safe deployment.
- Live GPS tracking: Real-time location of field teams and resources
- Resource status management: Mark resources out of service, unavailable, or assigned
- Duress alerts: Rapid identification and location of staff requiring immediate assistance
Rich location intelligence as custom layersGo beyond dots on a map by attaching meaningful operational detail to locations and making it visible when it matters.
- Feature-rich overlays: Display site assets, access points, hazards, muster points, and operational reference data
- Custom layer attributes: Configure what information is shown for a location, including photos, notes, and operational metadata
- Role-appropriate visibility: Show the right level of detail to the right users
Weather overlay & environmental contextOverlay weather and conditions that affect decision-making for outdoor work and incident response.
- Live weather overlays: Visualise conditions impacting safety and access
- Operational planning support: Improve readiness and reduce exposure during changing conditions
Playback & auditReview and reconstruct movements to ensure, investigate, and drive continuous improvement.

Locator Capabilities
Locator turns mapping into an operational tool by unifying geospatial layers, rich location detail, and interactive map controls in a single live view. When required, GPS overlays and duress alerts add real-time resource visibility so deployment decisions are made with context, not assumption.
Data and layers
Ingest and visualise geospatial layers from common GIS services and file-based sources in a single operational view. Bring authoritative layers together so teams stop switching tools or losing context…
Ingest and visualise geospatial layers from common GIS services and file-based sources in a single operational view. Bring authoritative layers together so teams stop switching tools or losing context. Switch between basemaps to suit the task, from planning and briefings to live operations.
Basemap choice helps teams quickly interpret terrain, access, and built-environment constraints. Toggle layers, manage ordering, and control visibility so operators can focus on what matters in the moment. Clean layer management reduces map noise during fast-moving situations, helping operators focus on what matters now.
Interaction and context
Search for locations, assets, and operational points, then inspect feature attributes directly from the map. Rich detail supports quicker decisions without relying on separate reference material…
Search for locations, assets, and operational points, then inspect feature attributes directly from the map. Rich detail supports quicker decisions without relying on separate reference material. Use measurement tools to plan cordons, access routes, exclusion zones, and response staging areas. Measurement improves clarity when teams need to act quickly and consistently.
Add notes, locations, points, paths, and zones to capture live operational context and share it across teams. Mark hazards, rendezvous points, and access constraints as conditions change.
Operational intelligence
Build custom overlays with meaningful attributes, photos, and operational metadata so the map becomes a source of truth. Site intelligence can be made visible to the right roles at the right time…
