`
`ABSTRACT
`
`A method and system includes the ability for individuals to
`set up an ad hoc digital and voice network easily and rapidly
`to allow users to coordinate their activities by eliminating the
`need for pre-entry of data into a web or identifying others by
`name, phone numbers or email. This method is especially
`useful for police, fire fighters, military, first responders or
`other emergency situations for coordinating different organi-
`zations at the scene of a disaster to elevate conventional
`
`communication problems either up and down the chain of
`command or cross communication between different emer-
`
`gency units. The method and system provides that the users
`are only required to enter a specific Server IP address and an
`ad hoc event name, a password and perhaps the name of the
`particular unit.
