GeoComm Expands Indoor Mapping Delivery Through Partnership with Map I.T.

Partnership gives organizations a more scalable path to turn existing building records into usable indoor GIS data.

ST. CLOUD, Minn. and CHARLESTON, S.C., Sept. 4, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- GeoComm, a leader in public safety grade location intelligence, and Map I.T. today announced a partnership designed to help organizations more efficiently collect existing conditions and transform floorplans and building records into structured, operational indoor GIS data.

Organizations often have valuable building information locked in paper floorplans, scanned images, PDFs, CAD files, and other formats that are difficult to use within modern mapping, safety, and operational systems. Converting those materials or creating new floor plans into usable indoor GIS data can require multiple stages of preparation, conversion, quality review, and coordination.

Through the partnership, GeoComm and Map I.T. combine complementary strengths to give customers a coordinated path from existing building records to operational indoor maps. Map I.T. contributes specialized experience in LiDAR laser scanning and reality capture, floor plan and 3D model creation and preparation, and GIS data development, while GeoComm brings public safety grade location intelligence expertise, data quality standards, and operational context. As part of GeoComm's broader services ecosystem strategy, the companies can align the right expertise and resources with each engagement based on the customer's needs, providing a flexible approach that is not limited to a single delivery model.

"No single delivery model fits every indoor mapping project," said Nate Ekdahl, Director of Services Strategy, GeoComm. "Our strategy is to combine GeoComm's expertise with the right partner capabilities for each engagement, giving customers more flexibility to address projects of different sizes, source materials, and timelines while maintaining a consistent focus on quality and operational outcomes."

By coordinating capabilities across the project lifecycle, GeoComm and Map I.T. can help customers reduce fragmented handoffs, address larger or more complex initiatives, and maintain consistent expectations around data quality and operational usability.

Through the partnership, customers can:

• Create new floor plans and map critical assets
• Transform paper, PDF, CAD, and other building records into structured indoor GIS data.
• Scale indoor mapping initiatives across multiple buildings, campuses, and sites.
• Reduce fragmented handoffs across preparation, conversion, and GIS development activities.
• Align delivery resources with project requirements, timelines, and scale.
• Establish usable indoor maps that support safety and operational workflows.

"By partnering with GeoComm, Map I.T. is combining our reality capture and mapping expertise with their specialized public safety knowledge to provide clients with a seamless project experience and industry-leading deliverables," said Zachary Jaffe, Founder and CEO, Map I.T. "We look forward to delivering these enhanced capabilities through our collaborative approach."

The partnership strengthens GeoComm's growing services ecosystem and provides organizations with a more flexible and scalable way to address indoor mapping needs — bringing together the capabilities required to turn existing building information into trusted location intelligence that can support real-world operations.
