Aerial Imagery Speeds the Way in Emergency Management


Question 1: What role do aerial maps play in emergency management?
Seconds count in this business. Locations are constantly changing due to growth, redesign or new construction. While GPS and routing systems are pervasive, there’s more that can be done to create highly responsive emergency management dispatch and service.
Current aerial maps that are days or weeks old show details that older maps or blurry satellite imagery simply do not. Imagine a scenario where an emergency vehicle is navigating through a newly designed entrance and exit paths or roadways under construction. Imagine saving lives in complex locations such as campuses, refineries, malls and urban centers. The details provided by dispatch help guide emergency technicians to the exact location. High resolution aerial maps provide pinpoint accuracy and context for emergency rescue.
