There is
little question that one of the most pressing challenges
facing fire, rescue service and other first responder
leaders today is achieving accurate and complete
personnel accountability.
Until now, accountability has typically been achieved
through such manual processes as the collection of tags
and the use of status boards, which consume precious
resources when time is of the essence. These manual
methods are also prone to error and ineffective when
means of identification are misplaced, stolen, lost or
forgotten.
Now, with SafeScene, automatic, error-proof and
cost-effective accountability and resource management is
possible for the first time.
SafeScene is a system that
detects and monitors personnel and equipment at emergency incidents.
The system uses lightweight RFID (radio frequency identification) tags
that can go in personnel protective equipment, pockets or helmet crowns and a simple
software application that provides complete information about the status
of personnel
and equipment at the incident, provides for the management of resources
and logs all incident assignments and activities.
SafeScene is the world's
only fully automatic accountability system. Personnel do not
need to take any action when they arrive at the incident. No tags
or waiting in line for a card to be scanned. No equipment to be
placed around the incident scene. No waiting for lights to start
blinking. Your personnel are instantly detected when they show up
at the incident.
And, SafeScene is the
world's most reliable automatic accountability system. With
nothing to set up, there is nothing that can be disturbed and turn your
accountability into chaos. Unlike systems that require placement
of equipment around the scene, SafeScene's performance can't be
compromised by the changing environments common to emergency incidents,
including falling structures or newly-arriving and moving vehicles and
equipment.
