Leveraging GIS to Rejuvenate Fire & Police Response Mapping
Track: Fire, Rescue, and EMS
Authors: Alex Sainz, Monique Larragoitia, Michael Neal
Multi-agency data consolidation efforts to create a regional GDB have produced a one-stop shop for public safety map products. Chula Vista first responders have embraced the update from old hand-drawn maps to more specific and effective multi-format pre-plans used to deploy resources more efficiently and enhance situational awareness. The scalability of a multi-editor GIS workflow enables timely updates, faster publication, and allows even the smallest agencies to be valuable contributors.
