Intrado and GeoComm Partner to Enhance Safety in Schools and Enterprise Buildings
2024年8月5日 - 10:00PM
Intrado Life & Safety, a global leader in public safety
solutions, today announced a partnership with GeoComm, a leading
provider of Geographical Information Systems (GIS) data. This
partnership aims to enhance data available via Intrado’s Spatial
Insight product by integrating interior GIS data from critical
buildings, including schools, airports, courts, and hospitals,
thereby improving emergency response capabilities.
“The call centers that support our first responders may have the
address of a building such as a school or hospital that is
experiencing an emergency, but just the address alone is not enough
to locate someone in need inside the building. Our partnership with
GeoComm and the extensions it enables to our Spatial Insight
offering help provide public safety call takers the detailed
information they need in order to get help to the right people in
the right places at the right time. Room-specific location
significantly reduces response times, ensuring first responders
reach the right room and improve outcomes,” said Jaz Lin, Head of
Product at Intrado.
“It is critical to enable interoperability within public safety
and school safety solutions to increase access to critical
information. In this case the indoor GIS maps provide increased
situational awareness for 911 emergency response,” said Jeff Liebl,
GeoComm President & CEO. “This partnership represents our
commitment to supporting community safety to save lives and protect
property when seconds matter.”
GeoComm’s indoor maps and other useful sources of supplemental
emergency information, including automotive telematics and
supplementary data supplied from mobile devices including mobile
phones are available to Public Safety Answering Points (PSAPs) for
free with Intrado’s Spatial Insight. With Intrado and third-party
integrations as well as stand-alone modes, Spatial Insight enables
field teams with the best possible detailed information about the
emergency at hand. Interested PSAPs are encouraged to claim their
free account at https://go.intrado.com/spatial-insight.
Intrado Spatial Insight will be on display at the 2024 APCO
International’s Annual Conference & Expo on August 5 & 6 in
Orlando, Florida.
