openaddress ATAK Plugin

ATAK Plugins · Adeptus Cyber Solutions

openaddress ATAK Plugin.

Offline geocoding for ATAK — bring OpenAddresses.io address data directly into the field without network connectivity. Convert addresses to coordinates and back, seamlessly integrated into the standard ATAK coordinate entry display.

ACS ATAK plugin development for DoD and government operators

The Problem

Geocoding stops working the moment you lose network connectivity.

While ATAK excels as a moving map platform, its full capabilities depend on network connectivity. Without a network, critical functions like geocoding — converting addresses to coordinates or vice versa — are unavailable. In disconnected, intermittent, and low-bandwidth (DDIL) environments, that gap is a real operational problem.

The ACS Solution

ACS developed the openaddress plugin to bring OpenAddresses.io data directly into ATAK. Users can access address data offline through the standard ATAK coordinate entry display — quick, seamless, and requiring no network connection in the field.

Developed by the ACS engineering team in Rome, NY, where our engineers build TAK integrations daily for DoD and government programs operating in exactly these environments.

Key Capabilities

✓  Fully offline geocoding in ATAK
✓  Integrates with Coordinate Entry panel
✓  Imports JSON data from OpenAddresses.io
✓  Address → coordinate conversion
✓  No client configuration required
✓  Works in DDIL environments

Need a custom offline data integration? Contact ACS.

In Action

Geocoding inside the ATAK Coordinate Entry panel — no network required.

The openaddress plugin adds a geocoder to ATAK accessible directly from the Coordinate Entry panel, giving operators address data wherever they operate.

Public Safety ATAK Plugin

ATAK Plugins · Adeptus Cyber Solutions

Public Safety Plugin
for ATAK.

ATAK was built for the battlefield. The Public Safety Plugin reshapes it for law enforcement, fire, and EMS, adding the roles, teams, and unit capabilities your operators actually use.

The Problem

ATAK’s default roles and teams were designed for military units, not public safety operations.

ATAK delivers powerful situational awareness, but its built-in organizational structure reflects its military origins. Roles like “Team Member” and rigid team structures don’t translate to how law enforcement, fire, and EMS agencies actually operate.

ACS engaged with a group of ATAK advocates in the public safety community to understand exactly where the gaps were. The result is the Public Safety Plugin, purpose-built to make ATAK work the way your agency works.

The ACS Solution

The plugin gives operators the ability to define custom roles, build named teams with identifying colors, and tag each EUD with its real-world capabilities. Every connected device becomes immediately identifiable: role, organization, and equipment at a glance.

Who Benefits

✓  Law Enforcement Agencies
✓  Fire Departments
✓  EMS & Paramedic Units
✓  SWAT & Tactical Teams
✓  Multi-Agency Operations
✓  Emergency Management

Default Roles Included

Team Lead, SWAT, Medic, K9, Fire Engine, Ladder, Rescue, Ambulance. All fully customizable to match your agency’s structure.

Need a custom public safety tool? Contact ACS.

Key Features

Three capabilities that change how public safety uses ATAK.

Built from direct feedback with public safety ATAK users. Use them individually or together.

01

Custom Roles

Define roles that match your agency. Ships with defaults like SWAT, Medic, K9, Fire Engine, and Ambulance. Every role is fully editable so the list fits your organization.

02

Custom Teams

Name teams to reflect real agencies: “Myrtle Beach Fire” instead of “Blue Team.” Assign a color so personnel are visually identifiable at a glance, even in multi-agency operations.
03

Additional Capabilities

Tag each EUD with the capabilities it carries. A fire engine unit with Advanced Life Saving capability gets tagged accordingly, so when a medic needs ALS support in the field, they find the right unit fast.

 Extra capabilities feature in the Public Safety ATAK plugin

In Action

Role, organization, and capabilities visible from the TAK Server dashboard.

Without the plugin, connected devices show as generic “Team Members.” With it, every unit is immediately identifiable by role and agency.

Medical Incident Report ATAK Plugin

Medical Incident Report (MIR) ATAK Plugin

ATAK Plugins · Adeptus Cyber Solutions

Medical Incident Report (MIR)
ATAK Plugin.

ICS 206-based medical incident reporting directly inside ATAK. Capture vital information at the point of care, generate a PDF report, and keep incident command informed without leaving the platform.

ACS ATAK plugin development for DoD and government operators

The Problem

In critical moments, documentation needs to happen at the point of care — not back at command.

When a medical incident happens, documentation needs to start immediately and stay accurate. A client brought the problem to ACS: field medical personnel needed a reporting tool they could use inside ATAK, with no system switching and no lost situational awareness.

The ACS Solution

The MIR Plugin puts ICS 206-based reporting directly inside ATAK. Field personnel capture vital information on the spot, generate a PDF record, and keep incident command informed, all without stepping out of the common operating picture.

Developed by ACS in Rome, NY, where our engineering team builds mission-critical ATAK tools for first responders, law enforcement, and DoD programs.

Who Benefits

✓  First Responders, EMTs & Paramedics
✓  Security Officers
✓  Medical Incident Technicians
✓  Unit Medics (military settings)
✓  Emergency Triage Teams
✓  Law Enforcement Medical Units

Key Feature

Complete the form in the field, generate an ICS 206 PDF, and send it to incident command. One workflow, no paper, no separate system.

ATAK Plugins

what3words ATAK Plugin

ATAK Plugins – Adeptus Cyber Solutions

what3words ATAK Plugin.

Replace error-prone coordinate strings with three simple words. The what3words ATAK plugin brings the world’s most precise and human-readable location system directly into ATAK – online and fully offline.

ACS ATAK plugin development for DoD and government operators

The Problem

Coordinate strings are hard to remember, easy to transpose, and slow to communicate under pressure.

Traditional positional coordinates in numeral form can be challenging to remember and easily mixed up when entered into mapping systems, causing confusion and delays in exactly the moments when accuracy matters most.

The ACS Solution

The what3words ATAK plugin brings what3words location sharing directly into ATAK. what3words divides the globe into 3m x 3m grids, assigning each a unique set of three memorable words. All calculations use publicly available APIs from what3words or the offline library, making it fully accessible in disconnected environments.

Developed by ACS in Rome, NY where our engineers build ATAK integrations for military, law enforcement, and first responder programs.

My Location

By default, ATAK displays your location in the selected coordinate system. The plugin also displays your location in what3words format for easy reference and communication.

Map Item Location

When selecting any item on the map, the plugin displays that item’s what3words location alongside the standard coordinate system, making it easy to communicate precise positions to anyone in the field.
