GeoComm and Mutualink Partner to Strengthen Indoor Location Intelligence for Emergency Response

Collaboration combines indoor mapping expertise with interoperable communications to support coordinated emergency response in schools, hospitals, and other complex facilities.

ST. CLOUD, Minn. and WALLINGFORD, Conn., Oct. 22, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- GeoComm and Mutualink today announced a partnership focused on strengthening the indoor location information available to organizations preparing for and responding to emergencies. By pairing GeoComm's public safety grade indoor maps with Mutualink's interoperable communications, the companies are addressing a common gap: teams on different systems and in different agencies often lack clear building context when minutes matter.

Mutualink's LNK360™ platform connects voice, radio, video, and data across systems during emergencies. Its RemoteView™ capability allows incident participants to view Smart Floor Plans alongside camera locations and live video. GeoComm Indoor Safety turns building records and floor plans into structured indoor GIS data, applying uniform features and public safety mapping standards. GeoComm converts a facility's existing floor plans into indoor maps, including rooms, doors, exits, and points of interest such as utility shutoffs and AEDs. Those maps serve as the floor plan layer in RemoteView, so camera locations and live video appear on a detailed map of the building.

Indoor maps are most useful when responders can interpret them quickly and trust that they reflect the building as it exists today. Floor plans often come from different sources, use different symbols, and change as facilities are renovated. GeoComm turns building records and floor plans into structured indoor GIS data, applying consistent features and public safety mapping standards to help organizations manage that information across facilities.

"During an emergency, the people coordinating response need a clear understanding of where help is needed and how to reach it," said T.J. Kennedy, President and CEO of GeoComm. "Our work with Mutualink brings together trusted indoor location intelligence and the communications that connect response teams. That combination can help organizations prepare more effectively and give responders better context when it matters."

Keeping maps current is a continuing part of that work. GeoComm's Map Data Manager gives facility teams a way to flag room name changes, layout updates, and other details that need attention. GeoComm reviews and incorporates those changes into the maps. Its Public Safety Content Library then provides a secure way to host indoor map content and make it available to authorized public safety applications and partners.

The need is especially clear in large or changing facilities. A campus may add a building, renumber rooms, or change an entrance that responders would use during an incident. Maintaining those details in a consistent indoor map helps emergency managers and response partners work from information that remains useful after an initial mapping project is complete.

For schools, hospitals, and other complex facilities, the partnership reflects a shared goal: strengthening the information people can use while coordinating an emergency response. Mutualink's communications capabilities help participants connect across systems. GeoComm's indoor mapping expertise helps give location information the consistency and care required for public safety use.

"When first responders arrive on scene, they need to know what they're walking into," said Chrissie Coffey, CEO of Mutualink. "Our partnership with GeoComm builds on Mutualink's existing Smart Floor Plans by bringing more detailed, accurate, and actively maintained indoor mapping into RemoteView. Through GeoComm's subscription-based mapping services, customers can keep building layouts, critical assets, and points of interest current as their facilities evolve. Combined with live video and interoperable communications, these capabilities strengthen emergency preparedness and give responders the situational awareness they need to make informed decisions when every second counts."
