ST. CLOUD, Minn., June 24, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- GeoComm, the nation's leading provider of public safety GIS and location intelligence, is celebrating 30 years of innovation at NENA 2025 in Long Beach, California. Founded in 1995, GeoComm worked with county governments to implement 9-1-1 addressing schemas, plot 9-1-1 locations on a map in the 9-1-1 call centers, and supported the nationwide roll out of Enhanced 9-1-1. Since its founding GeoComm has continuously provided stellar GIS professional development services paired with innovative GIS data-oriented solutions.

Starting in the Heartland with a Minnesota-based headquarters, GeoComm's impact supporting Public Safety stretches coast to coast serving local county, regional and state 9-1-1 programs, federal government programs, and school districts. The company, founded by Tom Grones, is fortunate to have the opportunity to work with some of the most prominent 9-1-1 industry leaders such as employees, customers, contractors, partners, and friends. 

Today, GeoComm is trusted by thousands of 9-1-1 programs and school districts with GIS data and solutions being used to provide enhanced situational awareness and emergency response support to over 100 million people.

Reflecting on a 30-year history, Board Chair, John Bryant said: "Since the beginning, GeoComm has stayed true to its mission to support 9-1-1, public safety and emergency response professionals when it matters most to our communities. This mission drives the team's work."

"What began as a vision to improve emergency response through better maps has become a nationwide movement toward smarter, data-driven public safety," said Jeff Liebl, President / CEO at GeoComm.
