"Almost Live" Real-Time Fire Dispatches: How It Works
by Frank Brown, Systems Analyst, Seattle Fire Department
Overview of the Process
It all starts when someone calls 9-1-1. The call is routed to a Fire Alarm Center (FAC) dispatcher who quickly assesses the proper response. The dispatcher uses Computer Assisted Dispatching (CAD) system to create an incident and send a response.
The CAD computer sends the basic dispatch information to the fire stations housing the units being sent. It also notifies a daemon program which sends the information to an NT server, which stores it in a SQL Server database.
