CHALLENGE

Can enhanced visualization and conceptualization capabilities be employed to improve resiliency and recovery efforts?

ADDRESS THE CHALLENGES

• Relevant information: right device, right time, right place• Leveraging the existing infrastructure, processes and

future investments• Cloud Computing• Device Agnostic• Opt-in and Opt-Out users / Mandated User

RIGHT INFORMATION, RIGHT DEVICE, RIGHT TIME

• Utilizes existing infrastructures• Connections to any or all existing data-sources• Automatic repurposing of Any Data to Any Device• Messaging tailored to end user’s role by incident and

location

LEVERAGING EXISTING INFRASTRUCTURE, PROCESSES & FUTURE INVESTMENTS

• Structure: Physical & Virtual• Properties: Flexibility, capability, effectiveness• Processes: Business processes, functions, roles & views

Video Streaming, Video on Demand Web pages Social Media – Twitter, Facebook, etc. WebEOC Products & Views SharePoint Imagery ESRI Products PATH & AWARE Toolsets Recovery Checklists Credentialing

CLOUD COMPUTING

• Transparency: many users, sharing many resources from many locations

• A flexible environment that can grow and contract on demand• Affordable: economies of scale reigns supreme• Permissive: environment can include multiple resources,

standards and methodologies

DEVICE AGNOSTIC

• “Real time” updates from any or all existing data-sources• Automatic repurposing of Any Data on Any Device• Any Content, Any Device, Any time, Any place

USER ROLES

Mandated• RTF Personnel • MACG Personnel• Local/State EOC• JFOCG Personnel• Others….

Opt-in/out• Red Cross• Public• News Agencies• FEMA• Others….

CREATE TARGETED MESSAGING

• News • Training• Agency • Social Media • Emergency • Map Views

• Radio • Instant Messaging (any device)• Interagency• Mobile channels• SharePoint channels• State Patrol

INTEGRATION

• Consistent Messaging to multiple levels of Government (Local to Federal levels)

• Existing Systems and Processes• Smart Mobile senses the real-world in real-time

using: Location (Distance from a point, in/out of a bounded area, routing) Calendar/clock (Season, Day-of-week, Day-parting, Timers/Alarms,

etc.) User profile (Age, Gender, Security profile, Rank, FaceBook, etc.) Environmental data (Temp, Season…) Type of Device (iPhone, Blackberry, Laptop, In-Dash unit, etc.) Relationship (people in close proximity to recovery effort) Any number of other task-/value-/project-driven triggers…

“Operationalize”

• Conceptual buy-off• Requirements scrubbing• Mapping solutions to requirements• Schedule• Scope• Demonstrate features; smart phones, tablets, PCs

Any Content, Any Device, Any time, Any place
