NICE Introduces Situation Management Solution for Public Safety,Building on Success in Other Security Segments
RA'ANANA, ISRAEL, June 20, 2011/PRNewswire-FirstCall/ --
NICE Situator, industry-leading open situation management platform, can
help public safety operations enhance emergency preparedness, improve
situational awareness and streamline incident response
NICE Systems Ltd. (NASDAQ: NICE) today introduced NICE Situator for
public safety. The solution builds on NICE's leading Situation Management
capabilities in the security sector to help public safety operations enhance
emergency preparedness, improve situational awareness and streamline
incident response. NICE will demonstrate the solution in booth 1201 at the
2011 NENA Conference and Expo, June 18-23, 2011 at the Minneapolis
Convention Center in Minneapolis, Minnesota.
Emergency communications centers and emergency operations centers (EOCs)
need to be prepared for any situation, from active shooter incidents and
hazardous chemical spills to severe weather outbreaks and other large-scale
events. To manage situations effectively, center personnel and first
responders need relevant, real-time information about what''s happening,
where and when. They also need readily accessible response plans. Today,
much of this information exists in silos making it difficult to "connect the
dots". Operating procedures documentation is often paper-based and real-time
information sharing is challenging. NICE Situator unifies siloed systems
into a Common Operating Picture, analyzing and correlating information and
applying adaptive response plans, so everyone in the response chain knows
what's happening and what to do next.
Many different types of public safety operations can benefit from NICE
Situator's streamlined incident response capabilities. For example, in an
EOC, a gunshot detection sensor integrated to NICE Situator could
automatically trigger video from near-by cameras to pop up on an operator''s
display, instructing the operator to dispatch the closest units based on
their GIS locations, and simultaneously pushing video out to officers'
mobile devices. Bi-directional integration can position PTZ (Pan Tilt Zoom)
cameras in response to the location of events, saving operator time and
avoiding potential confusion.
Another example is the event of a chemical spill, when a
telecommunicator in a 9-1-1 center could instantly open a CAD incident to
dispatch a hazmat team, and get immediate access to a step-by-step response
plan. With the ability to leverage both automated and operator-led actions,
NICE Situator ensures fast resolution and recovery from an incident.
"The public safety landscape has become increasingly complex, with EOCs,
9-1-1 centers and first responders handling many different types of
situations and threats that require close collaboration," said Israel
Livnat, President of the NICE Security Group. "At the same time, there has
been a proliferation of public safety-enabling technologies that have the
potential to offer rich insight if they only worked together. NICE Situator
bridges these islands of information to enhance real-time awareness and
situation management. Agencies can be confident they're responding
effectively to any situation in accordance with their pre-defined operating
procedures. Interoperability also improves because agencies can work off of
a Common Operating Picture and joint response plan, with clearly defined
roles and responsibilities, enhanced by real-time collaboration."
Finally, NICE Situator's open architecture enables public safety
operations to leverage their existing technologies to the fullest by
integrating with video surveillance systems, video walls, location tracking
systems (AVL, GPS), gunshot detection systems, license plate readers,
communication devices, alarm panels, fire and safety sensors, real-time
mobile video, CAD/RMS, mass notification systems, telematics devices, watch
lists, crime databases, poison control databases, mobile devices such as
PDAs and in-vehicle computers, and many more systems. NICE Situator can also
integrate to support technologies, databases and resources outside of the
traditional public safety realm, such as: hazardous material databases,
plume analysis systems, utility feeds, traffic systems, weather systems, and
chemical, biological, radiological and nuclear sensors.
The NICE Security Offering addresses the needs of governments and
enterprises with intent-based solutions for fighting crime and terror, by
anticipating, managing and mitigating safety, security and operational
