Abstract

Preparing for Next-Gen 911 - A Regional Approach
Track: Computer Aided Dispatch and 911
Authors: David Wray, Wendy Peloquin

Roanoke County, in partnership with the cities of Roanoke and Salem, led the development of a regional PSAP database dynamically derived from each disparate spatial data source under the 2017 Public Safety Answering Point (PSAP) Grant. The regionalized PSAP dataset supports local coordination via online accessibility and an established common framework to address boundary and jurisdiction ambiguity.
