In an emergency, information is pivotal. More information provides better understanding of an emergency and empowers potentially life-saving decision-making. Emergency response teams depend on information to guide their efforts and to deliver targeted assistance. On the front lines of emergency response are 911 and field responder agencies, which must direct reaction to life-or-death situations rapidly and efficiently.  Historically, 911 operators had to respond based on very little information, perhaps just a voice on the phone or a location on their screen. Today, there are literally millions of information sources available, ranging from connected buildings to vehicle telematics to live video streams to health information from wearable devices. This feature article from SecurityInformed.com/SourceSecurity.com Editor Larry Anderson looks at how these information sources can be leveraged to improve emergency response time, and features commentary from RapidSOS CEO Michael Martin. https://lnkd.in/ek2hY5mi   #physicalsecurityindustry #emergencyresponders #fireandsecurity #digitaltransformation
