Emerging Digital Concepts Awarded Denver Regional CAD-to-CAD Project
Vienna, VA, June 02, 2019 --(PR.com)-- Emerging Digital Concepts (EDC) announced today it has been selected to provide its NG-CAD-X, CAD-to-CAD interoperability solution for the ten-county Denver metro area known as the North Central All Hazards Region. EDC, in conjunction with their strategic partner, GeoComm, will also deploy GeoComm Smart City Map, a three-dimensional map display providing a common operating picture (COP) with integrated sensor feeds, for enhanced regional situational awareness.
NG-CAD-X provides state-of-the-art interoperability amongst PSAP’s (Public Safety Access Points) and their CAD Systems with features that include real-time remote unit status, remote unit dispatching, messaging, unit roster and status notification, and up-to-date incident details from neighboring jurisdictions on mutual incidents. When paired with GeoComm Smart City Map, these features improve response time, unify mutual aid coordination, and enhance emergency situational awareness.
Chris Wiseman, EDC President and CEO said, “EDC is very pleased to have been awarded this major project in the Denver region. This solution will provide mission critical enhancing software components to the region, with the initial installation including ADCOM911, Thornton, Westminster, and the City and County of Broomfield.”
This program is funded through FEMA’s Urban Area Security Initiative (UASI) Program which assists high-threat, high-density Urban Areas efforts to build and sustain the capabilities necessary to prevent, protect against, mitigate, respond to, and recover from acts of terrorism.
Greg Crider, EDC CTO adds, “Horizontal integration between local, regional and federal agencies has been a priority in recent years among PSAPs. The demand by stakeholders to have CAD system technologies integrate this type of data sharing to occur has been a priority to first responders.”
“GeoComm looks forward to collaborating with EDC and the North Central All Hazards Region on this project to provide a three-dimensional map for displaying the CAD-to-CAD exchange details for improving situational awareness and mutual aid emergency response throughout the region,” said Erik Loberg, Vice President of Product Management.
