3/6 #FindMeSAR works *offline* and shows your coordinates in 5 formats. Yellow screen is decimal degrees which you should provide if you ever call 911. Tap “Tips” for installation instructions. #PWA #ProgressiveWebApp
1/ #FindMeSAR (https://t.co/DK7Za0BiQP) is another one of my volunteer projects. This *web app* uses the GPS chip in your phone to display your coordinates in several formats and the related accuracy value.
1/3 For anyone in the UK #FindMeSAR (https://t.co/DK7Za0BiQP) now displays your location as OS grid reference *and* the accuracy value. Tap “Next format” a few times. Works *offline* - read the “Tips”. Ordnance survey grid is a better way to state location than #What3Words #W3W
3/_ The #FindMeSAR web page works offline. Only requirement is that your phone must be online the first time you open this web page. This magic made possible by ‘service worker’ coding + ‘appcache’ as a fall back.
@AllOutBubblegum @ai6yrham @barkflight Correct. #FindMeSAR is a 'web app', not a 'native app'. It has a "Tips" button with more info.
When the accuracy value gets to 100 feet or less, then a button appears that lets you copy the coordinates and accuracy value to the clipboard.
4/_ The first time you open #FindMeSAR your device must be online. You can then open this web app when your device is offline. (Offline web page? Weird but true.) There is a “Tips” button with more information.
@waEMD When you text to 911 they do not know your location unless you tell them. Use https://t.co/YyFiVd9El2 (yellow screen) to get your latitude longitude and accuracy value to include in your text. For more info, open #FindMeSAR and tap "Tips".
Thanks for the heads up Bruce. I am going to read the report and then ping them with info on #FindMeSAR
1/9 Here is a tip that can save a life (yours?) in an emergency. When you call 911 they might not know where you are unless you tell them. I developed #FindMeSAR as a public service project to help solve this problem. #SearchAndRescue #EmergencyManagement
1/6 Here is one of my public service projects that might help to save a life. #FindMeSAR (https://t.co/DK7Za0BiQP) is a webpage that uses the GPS in your phone to display your coordinates and accuracy value. #SearchAndRescue #Hiking #10Essential
@CobbCountyGIS #FindMeSAR is a web page that displays the user's coordinates and accuracy value in several formats, including #USNG.

#FindMeSAR (https://t.co/DK7Za0BiQP) helped #SAR team rescue hiker stuck in deep snow. I encourage all SAR teams to include FindMeSAR in their digital toolbox. I developed this as a public service. See part 2 news video.

Thank you 👏 to everyone who is re-tweeting this information. By sharing this we will help save lives. And if you know anyone that works at all in first response, please let them know about #FindMeSAR.
Location tip for #911Dispatcher. #FindMeSAR is a simple web page I made that can help you get coordinates and accuracy value for wireless callers. For a discussion thread on Reddit please see https://t.co/pP7GmlCM0W

@ai6yrham To get your latitude/longitude coordinates, browse to https://t.co/JRuijMZA4H, tap "Next format" button until yellow screen appears. When accuracy value is 30 feet or less, tap Stop. Full disclosure - I am the developer of #FindMeSAR
Assume you need help in a disaster. Do you have an easy way to display your coordinates and accuracy value on your phone? #FindMeSAR (https://t.co/DK7Za0SUfp) is an open source webpage I developed as a public service. #Dorian #HurricaneDorian
@RSFireNerd @ai6yrham But of course - now you do. #FindMeSAR includes an icon you can save on your home screen. It is also built with "appcache" technology. Translation: After you open it the first time, it then works offline.
@ai6yrham @RSFireNerd All 911 call centers use lat lng, decimal degrees. Thus to me it makes sense that everyone have an easy way to display that format with their cell phone. Baffled why that is not built-in to phones. So says #FindMeSAR developer.
@8bitmeme @ai6yrham @pjdohertygis If only word about #FindMeSAR could penetrate the #PSAP world. A 911 call taker could ask the caller to browse to https://t.co/JRuijNhaWf, tap "Next format" until the yellow screen appeared, and then read off their coordinates and accuracy value.
#FindMeSAR (https://t.co/DK7Za0BiQP) displays your coordinates (4 kinds) and accuracy value. "Display map” button starts #GISsurfer and displays your location on the map with a symbol that follows you as you move. For mobile users #PSAP #textto911 #NG911 #911dispatch #geospatial
