Our Software Offers Technology Designed For First Responders
The software is very complex but easily used and offers many attributes designed specifically for fire firefighters and first responders, including:
1) Notification & Mapping
Calls received from a client’s CAD to StreetWise interface are automatically sent to the assigned devices. The incident information is shown in a full-screen, easy-to-read display complete with a call index. If the CAD system sends updated information, the display is also automatically updated, with a pop-up notification to the user.
2) Navigation & Routing
Calls are instantly mapped and displayed at the push of a button. For the ultimate situational awareness, the incident can be displayed in street map view, as an aerial photo image, terrain view, or even in Google’s 360-degree interactive StreetView.
All map views use a simple and intuitive pinch-zoom and finger-swipe user interface. At the touch of a button, navigation to an active alert is automated for either a simple route overlay or even turn-by-turn directions.
3) Unit Locations
See other apparatus displayed on the tactical map in real-time for improved coordination. Labels display your own selected vehicle names with a choice of icons for various apparatus types. Icons realistically rotate in the direction of travel.
Tap any apparatus icon to see staffing, pump and tank capacity, EMS level, speed, and course. Engaged device filtering means you can tell which units are responding to your call; multiple incidents can be handled without confusion.
4) Hydrant Data Display
Hydrants and water points can be displayed on the street map, terrain view, or aerial image view. Hydrant icons are interactive and can display information such as flow capacity, primary size, location notes, etc.
A choice of icons can match hydrant capacity to NFPA colors. You can instantly change a single hydrant to an “out of service” icon on all devices simultaneously. Hydrants can be easily imported and exported.
5) Shared Waypoints
More than just a mapping program, StreetWise gives you revolutionary new ways to help manage an incident. Fully interactive, tactical waypoints can be instantly dropped on the map with a simple tap of your finger, automatically appearing on the maps of all other devices engaged in your call within seconds.
6) Total Preplan Management
Occupancy preplans sort and list automatically by proximity to the call you’re responding to. They can also be displayed as map icons. Select any preplan to view a comprehensive, easy-to-navigate, tabbed display of occupancy information.
Preplan surveys, complete with embedded photos, are easily performed in the field on the device. When complete, they are synced to the StreeWise cloud servers and available to every device for the next call. Preplans can be selectively cached to device memory for offline use when broadband isn’t available.
7) Instant Photo Sharing
Need to let other responders see what you are seeing? Using the table’s built-in camera, point, click, and share instantly without leaving the StreetWise application. Units in one area of a call can send up-to-date imagery to units in another. Remote companies performing search or damage assessment functions can send photos to the incident commander or EOC.
8) Live NFIRS Integration
StreetWise CADlink integrates live with your records management software, making life easier for your crews and dramatically improving the accuracy of your response time analysis.
9) Status Timestamp Log
You can change and record your unit’s status, such as En Route, Arrived, Available, etc., at the push of a button. Unit status timestamps are instantly recorded in the server for later retrieval to enhance documentation of truly accurate response times.
Benchmarking status buttons can also record essential incident timestamps, such as First Water Applied, Patient Contact Made, PAR Check Conducted, and more. An optional bidirectional programming interface on our server makes Status Button activations instantly synchronize to select CAD vendors.
10) Custom Map Layers
Custom Map Layers adds a geo-referenced layer to the StreetWise Tactical Map display created from our clients’ Geographic Information Software (GIS) data.
