GIS for the Fire Service: HP Services National and Public Safety Solutions

Overview When a fire occurs, a few minute's delay in response time can make the difference between containment and conflagration ? and perhaps between serious injury and escape for occupants of the structure. Fast, accurate access to critical information is essential. Tools that help firefighters pinpoint the emergency call location, assess the potential consequences, and determine the most efficient strategy will minimize property damage and better protect the safety of occupants and fire service personnel. That's why the professionals at HP and ESRI developed the GIS Solution Set for the Fire Service. This complete solution of hardware, software, and service gives fire service personnel access to critical response data, vehicle tracking, and emergency event modeling.
