Cellfind (Pty) Ltd (“Cellfind”) was formed in September 2003, with the goal of becoming the leader in GSM location based services for Africa. The company purchased a technology license from a UK-based company, MI-International, for a product that had been operating on 6 cellular networks in the UK since June 2003. This product is known as Mapamobile. Cellfind operates both active and passive location based services. Both MTN and Vodacom, South Africa’s largest cellular networks, support Cellfind’s active services such as Look4help. However, Vodacom is the only network in South Africa with the requisite Location Manager technology platform to support passive (tracking) location based services. Therefore, although the Cellfind services are designed to operate across all networks as they do in the UK, the South African services are currently restricted to the Vodacom

locr is a photo sharing community with a focus on geotagging. The locr software (for mobile phones, digital cameras, GPS data loggers and PCs) automatically tags photos with GPS data, shows their position on digital maps and generates for each photo descriptions of the locality.
