Santa Fe accelerates public safety with emergency management system

The US Santa Fe Ministry of Security has chosen Motorola Solutions to deliver an integrated, end-to-end emergency management system for multi-agency co-ordination and to shorten response times to emergency calls from the public.

Comprising voice communication and video security software, the Control, Attention and Dispatch System for Police Emergencies (SiCAD) will allow 17,500 police officers of the Province of Santa Fe to be coordinated and connected across 10 cities. Motorola Solutions will manage the integration within the police agency’s command and control room centre, creating a single, real-time viewpoint of incidents by collating data from multiple sources including 911 calls, emergency dispatch functions, video analytics, evidence and community inputs.

Included within the emergency management system are Motorola Solutions’ Dimetra TETRA consoles, which provide always-on digital radio voice communication and constant connection between police officers in the field and the command and control centre. Command and control centre workers can dispatch additional resources wherever they are needed for quick and effective emergency response.

Police officers can also establish interoperable communication instantly over any network or device, including communication between radios and smartphones with Motorola Solutions’ Wave PTX On Premises.
