摘要: |
The Minnesota Department of Transportation (Mn/DOT), the Minnesota State Patrol (MSP) and the Mayo Emergency Communications Center (MECC) teamed up with Veridian Engineering to develop an emergency communications infrastructure not only capable of directly accepting Mayday calls, but intelligent enough to accurately route calls to the proper authority depending on the geographic location of the incident. The Mayday Plus system consists of the in-vehicle equipment (IVE) dispatcher interface and communications gateway. The IVE consists of cellular and global positioning system (GPS) technologies and is capable of transmitting voice, location and crash severity data including the change in velocity of the vehicle upon impact and indication of rollover. The dispatcher interface runs on a personal computer and allows for displaying data sent and received from the vehicle or to other dispatch centers interconnected to the Mayday Plus system. The communications gateway is the key to the Mayday Plus system. The communications gateway logically and automatically routes data and voice based on the geographic location of the incident to the proper emergency response agencies. The communications gateway takes into consideration the intricacies of the actual routing protocols for wireless 9-1-1 calls for help. |
