OpsCommon collaborative mapping interface

Built for operations, events, and onsite projects. Wired for realtime collaboration.

Real-time collaboration

Everyone sees the same map at the same time. Drop markers, draw boundaries, sketch routes, and talk it through on built-in voice. Cursors are shared so you can point at things and say "here." Changes show up instantly for everyone in the operation.

  • Built-in voice chat, no third-party app needed
  • Shared cursors so you can point at locations while talking
  • Presenter mode for briefings and walkthroughs
  • Threaded comments on any map feature

Grids, coordinates, and military symbology

Toggle MGRS, UTM, or lat/long grid overlays directly on the map. Click anywhere to get coordinates in whatever format your team uses. Place markers with Maki icons, OCHA humanitarian symbols, or NATO APP-6 military symbology. No grid plugin or separate app needed.

  • MGRS, UTM, and lat/long grids with adjustable subdivision
  • GRG (Gridded Reference Graphic) tools with auto cell numbering
  • Protractor and bearing measurement tools
  • NATO APP-6, OCHA, and Maki icon sets built in

Coordinate formats

Routes, terrain, and weather

Draw routes on the map and attach named waypoints that stay linked to the track. Get distance, bearing, and ETA between waypoints. Pull elevation profiles and slope analysis for any stretch of terrain. Check current weather and forecasts for any point on the map without leaving the app.

  • Waypoints linked to routes, they move with the track
  • Elevation profiles and slope analysis
  • Weather and forecasts for any map location
  • Import routes from GPX and KML files

Teams, layers, and data management

Organize your people into teams with roles and permissions. Group map features into layers so you can show or hide what matters. Tag things with labels and categories for filtering. Import existing data from KML, KMZ, GPX, or GeoJSON. Export maps to PDF for print or offline use.

  • Layers with visibility toggles
  • Categories with custom icons and colors
  • KML, KMZ, GPX, GeoJSON import and export
  • PDF export with configurable paper sizes and grid overlays
  • Photo attachments on any map feature
  • Audit logging for accountability

Supported file formats

.KML Google Earth
.KMZ Compressed KML
.GPX GPS Exchange
.GeoJSON Web standard

Skip the setup. Start the operation.

Most mapping tools make you deal with servers, imagery pipelines, certificates, or device-by-device configuration before your team can even see the same map. OpsCommon cuts all of that out.

No servers. No configuration.

No TAK servers to stand up. No SSL certificates to generate. No ports to open, no data packages to build, no offline map tiles to cache. No IT support ticket. Imagery, basemaps, and satellite layers are already there. Open a browser, create an operation, and your team is on the map.

  • Nothing to install or host
  • Works on any device with a browser
  • Imagery and basemaps included
  • Onboard a new user in under a minute

Live collaboration, built in.

Everyone sees the same map, in real time. Drop markers, draw boundaries, plan routes, and talk it through on built-in voice. Shared cursors let you point at things while you talk. Presenter mode lets you run briefings straight from the map.

  • Voice chat and shared cursors
  • Real-time sync across all users
  • Presenter mode for briefings
  • Threaded comments on any feature

Bring your data. Take it with you.

Import KML, KMZ, GPX, and GeoJSON files from whatever tools you already use. Export your work back out in the same formats, or print to PDF with grid overlays. Your data isn't trapped here.

  • KML, KMZ, GPX, GeoJSON import/export
  • PDF export with grid overlays
  • Clone operations for repeat setups
  • No vendor lock-in
