The feature has been non-functional for a week. <p align="center"> <img src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/6315894f-7e31-4599-83e9-2e0f70f86ee5" width="400"/> The removal of this feature means that Geogramint and other OSINT tools that utilize the API no longer work. As of today, this GitHub repository will be archived. The popularity of Geogramint began with [this Projet FOX article](https://projetfox.com/en/2022/08/geogramint-an-osint-geolocalization-tool-for-telegram/), where the tool's capabilities were demonstrated in action. It was also showcased at the International Cybersecurity Forum (FIC) in Lille, France, in 2023, which led to this [Projet FOX article](https://projetfox.com/en/2023/07/osint-russian-military-presence-in-belarus/). Geogramint was used by many journalists, investigators, OSINT practitioners, and others. I personally want to thank everyone who used the tool, and I hope Geogramint was helpful in your investigations! <p align="right"> <b>- Alb310 </b></p> <p align="center"> <a href="https://twitter.com/Alb_310">Twitter @Alb_310</a> | <a href="https://projetfox.com/">Projet FOX's Website</a> | <a href="https://twitter.com/ProjetFOX">Twitter @ProjetFOX</a> | <a href="https://discord.com/invite/nxffsWBNRK">Projet FOX's Discord</a> | <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/projetfox">Projet FOX's LinkedIn</a> </p> ## **About** Geogramint is an OSINT tool that uses Telegram's API to find nearby users and groups. Inspired by [Tejado's Telegram Nearby Map](https://github.com/tejado/telegram-nearby-map), which is no longer maintained, it aims to provide a more user-friendly alternative. Geogramint only finds Telegram users and groups which have activated the nearby feature. Per default it is deactivated. The tool is fully supported on Windows and partially supported on Mac OS and Linux distributions. <p align="center"> <img src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/9b06b204-b23e-4014-a84c-e4188e4d38cb" /> ## 🛠️ Installation **Requirements:** [Python 3.9, 3.10 or 3.11](https://www.python.org/downloads/release/python-3112/)<br> ### On Windows [](https://svgshare.com/i/ZhY.svg) + #### With the installer: Click [here!](https://github.com/Alb-310/Geogramint/releases) + #### With Github: ```bash git clone https://github.com/Alb-310/Geogramint.git cd Geogramint/ pip3 install -r requirements.txt python3 geogramint.py # for GUI mode python3 geogramint.py --help # for CLI mode ``` Or depending on your installation : ```bash git clone https://github.com/Alb-310/Geogramint.git cd Geogramint/ pip install -r requirements.txt python geogramint.py # for GUI mode python geogramint.py --help # for CLI mode ``` ### On Mac OS  and Linux  + #### With Github: ```bash git clone https://github.com/Alb-310/Geogramint.git cd Geogramint/ pip3 install -r requirements.txt python3 geogramint.py # for GUI mode python3 geogramint.py --help # for CLI mode ``` Or depending on your installation : ```bash git clone https://github.com/Alb-310/Geogramint.git cd Geogramint/ pip install -r requirements.txt python geogramint.py # for GUI mode python geogramint.py --help # for CLI mode ``` More details in the [Wiki](https://github.com/Alb-310/Geogramint/wiki/Installation-Guide). ## 📡 Example: GUI 1.
