I can remember back in the day, right after the Columbine shooting, thinking how great it would be if emergency responders were able to have video and audio intelligence at the incident site -- and how that might save lives and quicken the resolution of tragedies. If emergency response is able to send and receive data on scene -- and use it for voice and imagery, for intel gathering as well as command and control -- we're a short step away from being able to interface them with security systems that are installed in the site itself. That pairing, in a wireless/mobile format, will provide them with real-time, on-site intel about the site and the incident that will make a huge difference in response and effectiveness.
When that data capability is then distributed from incident command to the guys on the front line -- there'll be real power in that information, as boots on the ground will then be able to immediately respond to changing conditions at the scene, while collaborating with incident command. It will make a huge difference when emergency response arrives at the scene during an incident, as well as coordinating the response and resolution after the event.
