Abstract

Claims (30)

1. At least one non-transitory computer-readable medium including instructions that, when executed by at least one processing device, enable the at least one processing device to perform a method, the method comprising the steps of:

accessing over a network first and second computer-aided dispatch databases, the first database having a first database identifier and including a first data set having a first data-set identifier, the second database having a second database identifier and including a second data set having a second data-set identifier different from the first data-set identifier, each of the first and second data sets characterizing at least one response to at least one incident by at least one emergency response vehicle;

retrieving from the first and second computer-aided dispatch databases the first and second database identifiers and first and second data-set identifiers over the network from the first and second databases;

generating a third data-set identifier based on the first and second data-set identifiers and different from the first and second data-set identifiers;

presenting on a display device the first and second database identifiers in a graphical user interface (GUI);

in response to receiving a selection of the first and second database identifiers from a user, displaying the third data-set identifier in the GUI;

in response to receiving a selection of the third data-set identifier from the user, retrieving over the network from the first and second databases the first and second data sets; and

displaying the first and second datasets in the GUI.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the set of at least one service provider comprises a police unit.

3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising displaying the first and second data-set identifiers in the GUI.

4. The method of claim 1 , further comprising displaying the first and second database identifiers in the GUI.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the third data-set identifier is generated in response to receiving a selection of the first and second database identifiers from the user.

6. At least one non-transitory computer-readable medium including instructions that, when executed by at least one processing device, enable the at least one processing device to perform a method, the method comprising the steps of:

retrieving over a network a data set comprising: (a) identifiers of a set of incidents occurring within a defined geographic region to which at least one service provider responded during a first time period and (b) address data identifying a location within the geographic region of each said incident of the set;

receiving from a user, via a user interface generated to a display device, an instruction to generate a heat map of the incidents occurring within the geographic region during the first time period;

in response to the instruction to generate the heat map, converting the address data to GPS data;

generating a heat map of an aerial view of the geographic region based on the GPS data; and

displaying to the display device the heat map in a user interface.

7. The method of claim 6 , further comprising generating to the display device a user interface within which is displayed the identifiers.

8. The method of claim 6 , wherein the set of at least one service provider comprises a police unit.

9. The method of claim 6 , further comprising:

receiving from the user, via the user interface, a selection of an icon identifying a location within the geographic region of an incident of the set; and

in response to said user selection of the icon, displaying in the user interface information characterizing the incident associated with the selected icon.

10. At least one non-transitory computer-readable medium including instructions that, when executed by at least one processing device, enable the at least one processing device to perform a method, the method comprising the steps of:

accessing over a network first and second computer-aided dispatch databases, the first database having a first database identifier, the second database having a second database identifier;

identifying the first and second databases using the first database identifier and second database identifier respectively;

providing from the second database to the first database a mutual-aid request for first responders to respond to an incident;

generating to a graphical user interface available to the first responders an identifier of the mutual-aid request;

in response to selection of the identifier by the first responders, retrieving from the second database and displaying to the graphical user interface information characterizing the incident, the information including a link to a map that provides an aerial view of the location of the incident to the first responders.

11. The method of claim 10 , wherein the first responders comprise a police unit.
