GeoSMS is a specification for geotagging SMS messages.[1][2] It works by embedding locations in the message text, where the locations are formatted as 'geo' URIs as defined in RFC 5870.[3]
It was developed in 2010 by Matthew Kwan, a PhD Candidate at the RMIT School of Mathematical and Geospatial Sciences and should not be confused with the Open GeoSMS standard.
