A bridge device at a first tier receives a geographic addressing packet destined for a target region containing a plurality of devices. The bridge device applies a bridging function using the geographic address packet to determine whether to transmit the geographic addressing packet. The bridging function utilizes certain information based on the geographic addressing packet. The bridge device determines to transmit the geographic addressing packet to a second tier based on the bridging function indicating that the geographic addressing packet should be transmitted to the second tier.

1. A method, comprising: receiving, at a first tier of a network, a geographic addressing packet destined for a target region, the target region comprising a plurality of devices;determining, by a bridge device at the first tier, to send the geographic addressing packet to a second tier of the network based on a result of a bridging function determined using information associated with the geographic addressing packet;determining whether the second tier is a geocast tier or a georouter tier;in response to determining that the second tier is a geocast tier, transmitting the geographic addressing packet to the second tier, wherein after receipt of the geographic addressing packet at the second tier, the second tier distributes the geographic address packet to the plurality of devices; andin response to determining that the second tier is a georouter tier, transmitting the geographic addressing packet to a georouter server, wherein the georouter server sends the geographic addressing packet to a bridge device at the second tier. 2. The method of claim 1, wherein the geographic addressing packet comprises a common operating picture update to be distributed to the plurality of devices. 3. The method of claim 1, wherein the information associated with the geographic addressing packet comprises at least one of a geocast region, a tier footprint, an identification of the first tier, and a location of the bridge device. 4. The method of claim 1, wherein the first tier is a georouter tier comprising the bridge device, wherein the bridge device communicates via a mobile communications network and a wireless network, and the second tier is the geocast tier comprising devices that communicate via a wireless network. 5. The method of claim 1, wherein the first tier is a geocast tier comprising the bridge device, wherein the bridge device communicates via a mobile communications network, and the second tier is the georouter tier comprising devices that communicate via a wireless network. 6. The method of claim 1, wherein the first tier is a second geocast tier comprising the bridge device at the first tier, wherein the bridge device at the first tier communicates via a mobile communication network, and the second tier is the geocast tier comprising devices that communicate via a wireless network. 7. The method of claim 1, wherein the first tier is a second georouter tier comprising the bridge device of the first tier, wherein the bridge device of the first tier communicates via a mobile communication network, and the second tier is the georouter tier comprising devices that communicate via a wireless network. 8. The method of claim 1, wherein determining to send the geographic addressing packet to a second tier of the network comprises: decrypting a header of the geographic addressing packet to determine to send the geographic addressing packet to the second tier. 9. The method of claim 1, wherein the geographic addressing packet is secured by a shared session key encryption system administered by a field security administrator. 10. A bridge device, comprising: a processor; anda memory to store computer program instructions, the computer program instructions when executed on the processor cause the processor to perform operations comprising: receiving, at a first tier of a network, a geographic addressing packet destined for a target region, the target region comprising a plurality of devices;determining, by a bridge device at the first tier, to send the geographic addressing packet to a second tier of the network based on a result of a bridging function determined using information associated with the geographic addressing packet;determining whether the second tier is a geocast tier or a georouter tier;in response to determining that the second tier is a geocast tier, transmitting the geographic addressing packet to the second tier, wherein after receipt of the geographic addressing packet at the second tier, the second tier distributes the geographic address packet to the plurality of devices; andin response to determining that the second tier is a georouter tier, transmitting the geographic addressing packet to a georouter server, wherein the georouter server sends the geographic addressing packet to a bridge device at the second tier. 11. The bridge device of claim 10, wherein the geographic addressing packet comprises a common operating picture update to be distributed to the plurality of devices. 12. The bridge device of claim 10, wherein the information associated with the geographic addressing packet comprises at least one of a geocast region, a tier footprint, an identification of the first tier, and a location of the bridge device. 13. The bridge device of claim 10, wherein the first tier is a georouter tier comprising the bridge device, wherein the bridge device communicates via a mobile communications network and a wireless network, and the second tier is the geocast tier comprising devices that communicate via a wireless network. 14. The bridge device of claim 10, wherein the first tier is a geocast tier comprising the bridge device, wherein the bridge device communicates via a mobile communications network, and the second tier is the georouter tier comprising devices that communicate via a wireless network. 15. A computer readable storage device storing computer program instructions for transmitting geographic addressing data to devices in an area, which, when executed on a processor, cause the processor to perform operations comprising: receiving, at a first tier of a network, a geographic addressing packet destined for a target region, the target region comprising a plurality of devices;determining, by a bridge device at the first tier, to send the geographic addressing packet to a second tier of the network based on a result of a bridging function determined using information associated with the geographic addressing packet;determining whether the second tier is a geocast tier or a georouter tier;in response to determining that the second tier is a geocast tier, transmitting the geographic addressing packet to the second tier, wherein after receipt of the geographic addressing packet at the second tier, the second tier distributes the geographic address packet to the plurality of devices; andin response to determining that the second tier is a georouter tier, transmitting the geographic addressing packet to a georouter server, wherein the georouter server sends the geographic addressing packet to a bridge device at the second tier. 16. The computer readable storage device of claim 15, wherein the geographic addressing packet comprises a common operating picture update to be distributed to the plurality of devices. 17. The computer readable storage device of claim 15, wherein the first tier is a first second geocast tier comprising the bridge device at the first tier, wherein the bridge device at the first tier communicates via a mobile communication network, and the second tier is the geocast tier comprising devices that communicate via a wireless network. 18. The computer readable storage device of claim 15, wherein the first tier is a second georouter tier comprising the bridge device of the first tier, wherein the bridge device of the first tier communicates via a mobile communication network, and the second tier is the georouter tier comprising devices that communicate via a wireless network. 19. The computer readable storage device of claim 15, wherein determining to send the geographic addressing packet to a second tier of the network comprises: decrypting a header of the geographic addressing packet to determine to send the geographic addressing packet to the second tier. 20.
