6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the public-safety factors includes a responding unit location, and the respective indications of the public-safety factors, rendered at the display screen, include a respective indication of the responding unit location, the responding unit location disabled by the disabling input, and the second public-safety geofence shaped and sized according to the enabled public-safety factors which excludes the responding unit location.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the public-safety factors includes a responding unit role, and the respective indications of the public-safety factors, rendered at the display screen, include a respective indication of the responding unit role, the responding unit role disabled by the disabling input, and the second public-safety geofence shaped and sized according to the enabled public-safety factors which excludes the responding unit role.

8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the public-safety factors includes an incident type, and the respective indications of the public-safety factors, rendered at the display screen, include a respective indication of the incident type, the incident type disabled by the disabling input, and the second public-safety geofence shaped and sized according to the enabled public-safety factors which excludes the incident type.

9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the respective selectable modification functions are further used to one or more of enable and modify an associated public-safety factor via receipt of respective enabling input and respective modifying at the input device.

10. A device comprising:

a controller in communication with an input device and a display screen, the controller configured to:

responsive to receiving, via the input device, an input requesting formation of a public-safety geofence at a given location of a cartographic map rendered at the display screen:

retrieve public-safety factors from at least one public-safety information database;

render, at the display screen, at the given location of the cartographic map, a first public-safety geofence shaped and sized according to the public-safety factors;

render, at the display screen, respective indications of the public-safety factors;

render, at the display screen, with the respective indications of the public-safety factors, respective selectable modification functions

responsive to receiving, via the input device, disabling input to disable a given public-safety factor represented by the respective indications of the public-safety factors, the disabling input received in association with a given selectable modification to disable the given public-safety factor:

disable the given public-safety factor; and

replace, at the display screen, at the given location of the cartographic map, the first public-safety geofence with a second public-safety geofence shaped and sized according to enabled public-safety factors which exclude the given public-safety factor as disabled.

11. The device of claim 10 , wherein the controller is further configured to: responsive to receiving, via the input device, modifying input to modify a given enabled public-safety factor of the enabled public-safety factors:

modify the given enabled public-safety factor; and

replace, at the display screen, at the given location of the cartographic map, the second public-safety geofence with a third public-safety geofence shaped and sized according to the enabled public-safety factors which include the given public-safety factor as modified.

12. The device of claim 10 , wherein the controller is further configured to: responsive to receiving, via the input device, enabling input to enable the given public-safety factor:

enable the given public-safety factor; and

replace, at the display screen, at the given location of the cartographic map, the second public-safety geofence with a third public-safety geofence shaped and sized according to the enabled public-safety factors which include the given public-safety factor.

13. The device of claim 10 , wherein the input requesting formation of the public-safety geofence does not indicate both a shape and a size of the public-safety geofence.

14. The device of claim 10 , wherein the input requesting formation of the public-safety geofence does not indicate one of a shape and a size of the public-safety geofence.

15. The device of claim 10 , wherein the public-safety factors includes a responding unit location, and the respective indications of the public-safety factors, rendered at the display screen, include a respective indication of the responding unit location, the responding unit location disabled by the disabling input, and the second public-safety geofence shaped and sized according to the enabled public-safety factors which excludes the responding unit location.

16. The device of claim 10 , wherein the public-safety factors includes a responding unit role, and the respective indications of the public-safety factors, rendered at the display screen, include a respective indication of the responding unit role, the responding unit role disabled by the disabling input, and the second public-safety geofence shaped and sized according to the enabled public-safety factors which excludes the responding unit role.
