I like #9, but the words are too close together and the p/n and a/l run together. Makes it harder to read. Also, Could use you make words smaller or use a thinner font? The north compass rose is considered a nautical element in maps. I like it, but you might play with some different styles of north arrows? Globes/circles are really heavily used in the industry already so they tend to look like everyone else's brand a bit too much. Thanks for your entry, I'd love to see some other ideas.
