Track: Next Generation Emergency Communications |
| Real-Time Alerts for 911 and First Responders |
| With limited resources becoming an increasing constraint for public safety answering points (PSAP) centers and Public Safety First Responders related to traffic and road safety, how can real-time data streamline events, improve post-care communication, reduce response times, and facilitate effective scene management? Emerging technology applications, such as real-time collision detection, wrong-way driving detection, and Infrastructure-to-Vehicle (I2V) communication, as well as connected vehicle technologies, further enhance efficiencies for 911 Operators and First Responders. In this presentation, we’ll discuss and explore the use cases of how real-time connected infrastructure, vehicle alerts, and analytics can help improve safety, provide insights into road situational awareness, and facilitate post-crash care communication. Use Cases will include: Real-Time Collision Detection: real-time collisions with alerts and live video feeds to PSAP centers Wrong-Way Driving Detection: real-time detection and alerts of wrong-way drivers Connected Vehicle Data: connected vehicle data to provide alerts to emergency responders en route about road and weather conditions, such as slippery roads and hydroplaning locations. This data can provide predictive insights into potential incidents, allowing for informed planning and resource allocation. I2V Communication: using sensor technology on road infrastructure from traffic control signal poles, streetlight poles, and existing CCTVs to detect road events and risks, such as vehicle collision avoidance, and near-miss collision analysis. Emergency Vehicle Preemption (EVP): provides green light phases to allow emergency vehicles, such as ambulances and fire trucks, to safely and efficiently navigate through traffic signals. The audience should be able to walk away with a clear understanding of how data and analytics, along with real-time alerts, help improve and empower a faster and smarter emergency response, enhance post-crash care, and enable NG911 initiatives. |
