Motorola Introduces Incident Scene Management Solutions for Public Safety and Government Users

Motorola, Inc. (NYSE: MOT) introduced Incident Scene Management, a wireless broadband solutions suite for first responder commanders and other public safety and government users who require a comprehensive set of communication tools for managing large-scale emergencies. Incident Scene Management solutions combine easily deployable applications, devices and networks that give incident scene commanders the rapid data and video information they need to make critical decisions to effect the best use of their available resources. The introduction was made here at Fire-Rescue International (FRI), the International Association of Fire Chiefs’ annual show.

The complexity of a large-scale incident, such as an oil refinery or chemical plant mishap, could involve hundreds of hazardous material handlers, emergency medical services personnel and other first responders, making coordination efforts extremely complicated without the aid of instant, on-site video and data communications. Incident Scene Management enables first responders to share vital incident scene information.

The Motorola Incident Scene Management portfolio of solutions are optimized for use on the Motorola MOTOMESHâ„¢ network which offers a high-bandwidth, self-forming, ad-hoc network to first responders and commanders who can share large text and data files, conduct quick research, view streaming video from or at remote sites within the incident scene area, as well as communicate with each other.

“Motorola’s new Incident Scene Management suite gives first responders the ability to transmit video of an incident while using white board technology over the same network that allows them to share maps and blueprints,” said Michael Fabbri, director of Data Solutions Operations, Motorola Networks & Enterprise. Using the tool, first responders can make notes and drawings of deployment strategies on the maps and blueprints, transmit text messages, and share other forms of data in real time.
