Key Benefits

 

Computer-Aided Dispatch

• Situational Awareness – Intergraph’s technologies extend beyond the PSAP, incorporating video, intelligence, and data analysis that provide valuable insight during critical incidents.
• Optimal Resource Deployment – Real-time recommendations ensure you send the right resources to the scene.
• Web Access – Browser-independent dispatching from a variety of devices enables easier access to critical information in the field.
• Coordinated Response – Sharing real-time data provides the tools for fast multi-agency response and mutual aid.
• Advanced Mobile Technologies – The latest mobile technologies give remote users access to live geospatial and supporting data on laptops, tablets, and smartphones, so they can make informed decisions in the field.

Communications

• Support for SMS Texting – Incorporating emergency text messages in the CAD workflow supports next-generation communications.
• Integrated Systems – Seamless integration of radio, digital radio, telephone, and mobile technologies with CAD reduces the chance of human error.
• Integration with External Applications – Easy integration with other applications results in better workflows. For example, integrating CAD with your personnel database enables you to route calls to operators with specific skills, such as foreign languages.

Notifications and Interoperability

• Intelligent Notifications – Automatic handling of intelligent notifications lets you share critical information on a variety of devices, streamlining operations and ensuring the safety of personnel.
• Advanced Interoperability Platform – Easy integration of systems for notification and paging, video and alarm management, fire station alerting systems, records management systems, and any other system with an application programming interface (API), ensures fast and easy interface deployment.
• Open Industry Standards – Uses industry-standard XML protocols for exchanging CAD incident information with third-party applications and CAD systems to support mutual aid requests.

Support for Fire Workflows

• Faster Fire Response – Operational workflows tailored for fire agencies ensure quicker response and better outcomes.
• Easy Configurability – Configurable system operates according to customer workflows and business practices. Out-of-the-box workflows use pre-set fire configurations based on industry best practices.
• Business Rules – Workflows based on business rules support “if/then” scenarios, pre-set mutual aid agreements, standard recommendations for event type, and other predetermined situations.
• Simple Data Exchange – Broad interoperability and easy configuration of CAD-to-CAD interfaces simplify the exchange of data among agencies, including the ability to send a call to a different department for response or action.
• Mobile Interface Enhancements – Mobile technologies provide a larger screen to allow for gloves movement. System does not require sign-off/sign-on at shift change, saving time while maintaining on-duty records.
• Efficient Routing – Locating the route to the closest hospital avoids unnecessary delays and saves lives.
• Industry Standards – NIEM compliance supports mutual aid scenarios, and support for the Medicare requirements for EMS improves tracking and billing.
• CAD Failover – If an alert is unsuccessful, the CAD failover workflow provides notification of failure, ensuring seamless communication of important information.
