Emergency Dispatch System Overview

A grant will be provided to license dispatch service managers and support containerized technology for local emergency dispatch operations using standardized emergency-dispatch containers.

Furthermore, all emergency equipment will be funded by the grant based on the district/city FEMA board's budget.

All FCC/NITS-approved operating systems will receive a directory of the nearest dispatch centers and will connect through a standardized API to enable the following:

• Place emergency service calls
• Enable communication via direct messaging and domain zone specific applications
• Enable the vehicle to call dispatch during an accident

All calls to dispatch centers must include either a user’s personal profile or the FCC device ID (if no profile is logged in), allowing the system to access the device’s location for emergency responses.

Emergency Officer and Vehicle Tracking

Dispatch systems will receive real-time GPS coordinates for all registered emergency vehicles and personnel within the district to support accurate location-based response.

Dispatch Application

Each emergency responder will use a dispatch log application to acknowledge and respond to service calls. These applications will be deployed within the appropriate domain zones and accessible only to licensed personnel.

Multi-District Coordination

Federal agencies, including FEMA, will have access to the same services as local districts. This ensures coordination across jurisdictions for large-scale emergencies affecting multiple cities or districts.
