"The RealBird Enhanced Viewer is our first GIS-based productivity power tool for real estate agents. Geographical Information Systems - GIS is the upcoming technology to benefit real estate -- after all, home buying is all about decision making using location related information" said Gabriel Gross, President and Founder of DonationChannel Inc. The RealBird Enhanced Viewer not only makes a real estate website more appealing and unique, it lets agents link their listings to their own, branded aerial maps instead of advertising-laden third party maps. For homebuyers, the RealBird Enhanced Viewer helps them make better informed decisions."

The free, RealBird Basic Viewer service is being offered to agents free of charge with the purpose to entice real estate agents to donate to local schools via the DonationChannel.org website.

The DonationChannel website makes it easy for real estate related professionals to sign up and commit to donate a percentage of their future real estate transactions to schools of their choice. In return, they gain the ability to promote themselves to their community with the "DonationChannel Seal of Contribution to the Community".
