Safe Rescue

Software-instrumentation platform to improve situational awareness for emergency responders

The Safe Rescue project has the potential to save the lives of victims and first responders by allowing emergency dispatchers to track, locate and direct teams to rescue personnel that are at risk or down during emergency events. Software will be created to increase the emergency dispatcher’s situational awareness of an accident by providing a dashboard view of the incident location, superimposed with the status / locations of the first responders, with the status / locations of the workers, and with the status / locations of the victims.
