<br /> . Phase III (Cont.) <br /> Implementation of this project could link GIS technology to the existing Enhanced <br /> 911 (E911) system currently utilized by emergency service agencies. When a call is <br /> received through the E911 system, it transfers the caller's address to the GIS. The <br /> GIS automatically locates the address and displays the map of the surrounding area <br /> on a console in front of the dispatcher. The caller's location is pinpointed on the <br /> map. While the dispatcher is directing response units, information pertaining to the <br /> address such as location of fire hydrants, presence of hazardous materials, or <br /> disabled persons, is also provided. All of this information is relayed to the response <br /> unit via video monitor and/or facsimile machine. <br /> We believe this project meets the statutory goal of a Service Sharing Grant by the <br /> consolidation of record systems of all agencies involved. <br /> This project could be initiated immediately if funding is granted. <br /> C. Benefit <br /> The project addresses delays in emergency response time caused by emergency <br /> service providers utilizing antiquated and complex systems of references to identify <br /> vital information to emergency service personnel that is not available with the <br /> current system and would decrease the delays in getting the information to the <br /> . response units. <br /> The system provides detailed maps including special attribute date (i.e. site layout, <br /> hydrant locations, structures, utility features, special waste information, etc.) to <br /> responding police/fire/paramedic units. Such information will help emergency <br /> personnel provide the most efficient and effective response for each situation <br /> encountered, helping to reduce properly loss and personal injury. <br /> The objective of the project is to reduce the delays associated with current <br /> emergency response procedures by incorporating GIS technology which can be <br /> updated to meet the future needs of County residents. Utilization of a GIS <br /> emergency response system would improve the efficiency of the delivery of <br /> emergency services within the County. County costs associated with maintaining <br /> and updating the GIS system would be reduced by user fees imposed on agencies <br /> benefiting from the system. The project involves collaboration of emergency service <br /> efforts by several agencies and provides an efficient emergency response system that <br /> requires inter-governmental cooperation. <br /> . <br />
