  1. Providing First Responders Critical Real-Time GIS and AVL InformationPaper UC1566 Presented By: David Blankinship, Steve Harris, Edward Kolarik and Thomas Wrobel of the CSFD

  2. The Major Components of Our System • On-board GPS • Communications network. • Mapping data. • Interface to 911 CAD system. • Routing and traffic signal preemption engines. • In-vehicle computer and display. • SQL database server. • Web based viewer.

  3. GPS 911 CSFD Preemption Call Info. Call Info. 900 MHz AVL Central System CAD

  4. 4665 Paramount Pl Geocoding Example Exact Location Geocoding Location Routing and Traffic Signal Preemption Engines • Determine location of 911 calls for service. • Attempts to determine “exact” location of call. • Defaults to Geocoding if “exact” location not found. • Uses Map Page grid data for validation.

  5. Routing and Traffic Signal Preemption Engines • Optimal route considerations. • Street segment impendence data. • Turn penalties. • Call on left or right side of street. • Time of day/day of week.

  6. Routing and Traffic Signal Preemption Engines • Traffic signal preemption • Identifies traffic signals to preempt along route. • When possible limits green signal to fire vehicle’s path only • Timing based on vehicle’s speed.
