Hello allAs evidenced recently by an interaction between an injured walker in the woods and SEMRECC the Regional 911 Center, the new APP for Smartphones"What Three Words" is a godsend for finding lost, injured people.The App has assigned a unique, three word combination to every 10 ft square in, if not the World then North AmericaWhen you use the app, by clicking on your GPS location it shows you the three word combination for the square that you are in. When you call or text 911(or anyone else for that matter) and tell them "What Three Words" they enter the words into their app and the map displays exactly where you are. It will even work
for lost husbands in the Mall..I would recommend that anyone who takes walks, hikes, bicycles or goes into the woods for any reason, have this app on their smartphone.
It may save your life.
Thank you
