Nearly 3.5 billion people throughout the world already use an instant messaging app for communications on a routine basis, many of them in high vulnerability locations. What if communities could just simply and easily utilize the existing apps for mapping?

This is the ideal tool for working with non-tech savvy people, or when you don’t have the time or capability to run trainings.

As easy as it sounds, ChatMap is available right now for everyone.

Once the chats are uploaded to the ChatMap application, the tool processes this data to extract the relevant locations, text and media and displays it on a map.
