The goal of their TRAX™ family is simple: unite our country's
emergency services with interoperable, NIMS compatible systems for
tracking all responders, volunteers, and victims at an incident.
Tracking information is managed on-scene to insure accountability,
safety, and site access control and is made available to off-scene
facilities for wide-area resource management during a public safety or
public health emergency.

Fire ground accountability is not optional. Issues of
life-safety, incident command and control, and leadership
liability make tracking who is on-scene with what
qualifications, when they arrive/depart and where they are
located of utmost importance. NIMS compatible accountability is
the call: fireTRAX® Accountability is the answer, easy as 1, 2,
3. fireTRAX® meets the requirements of the Dept. of HLS 2005
Authorized Equipment List (AEL): Item 4.4 - Systems,
Operations Area Personnel Tracking and Accountability.

-- 3 -- ELECTRONIC INCIDENT COMMAND
If the incident dictates, deploy a fireTRAX® Command laptop to
monitor multiple mobile units as part of a wireless local area
network (WLAN). The electronic command board shows a tactical
diagram of all assignments, companies, and personnel. Run
multiple PAR timers, maintain a command log, work a checklist,
and create ID tags right at the site. Establishing a wide-area
network allows remote facilities – such as an EOC – to monitor
the incident.
-- 2 -- MOBILE COMPUTING
Scanner-enabled, mobile units act as the bridge between manual
and electronic accountability. Scan the responder’s ID tag to
display qualifi cations, check-in, and make assignments with all
events time and date stamped. Simple PAR reports provide number
and status of all units and personnel. Search the database by
selecting quals or display the site history of a selected
responder.
-- 1 -- MANUAL
Constant awareness of the status and locations of
personnel at your site is the cornerstone of fire ground safety.
NFPA 1561 mandates the use of an accountability system –
including the ability to rapidly account for personnel on scene
as well as special tracking of crews in the Hot Zone. This
system helps you meet your NIMS accountability requirement.
fireTRAX is the most widely used accountability system in the
U.S. today.

Rapid and accurate tracking of victims of a mass casualty incident or
disaster is essential. Incident and medical branch managers must
uniquely identify each victim, assign a triage status and track
victims through treatment and transport with all activities time &
date stamped. This information must be available on-scene for incident
management, off-scene for trauma center preparedness, and
after-incident for full accountability and a chain-of-custody.
medTRAX meets this challenge with a simple, automated system
featuring bar-coded triage tags, handheld computers to capture data, a
wireless LAN to consolidate victim data, and internet access to make
incident data available to downstream facilities to prepare for
incoming casualties. A “transport label” travels with the victim to
provide survivable data and a chain-of-custody. Only medTRAX tracks
both victims and responders at site.
medTRAX meets the requirements of the Dept. of HLS 2005 Authorized
Equipment List (AEL): Item 4.4 - Systems, Operations Area
Personnel Tracking and Accountability.

One of the biggest issues in public safety today is asset management-
-the tracking, inventory and maintenance of an agency’s equipment,
gear, and tools. assetTRAX™ provides a fast and accurate solution
featuring easy “aim and shoot” barcode scanning, cutting hours off
periodic truck checks, inspections routines, and physical inventories.
By maintaining a historical record and audit trail, assetTRAX™
provides 100% accountability for high-value assets.

with responders, volunteers, and civilians--invited or not. A top
priority is establishing site security and access control so you can
screen, check-in and track all personnel. rapidTAG strips data from
state driver’s licenses to quickly tag all responders with
incident-specific badges - complete with site permissions, expiration
date, and a fireTRAX® compatible barcode for electronic
accountability.
rapidTAG meets the requirements of the Dept. of HLS 2005 Authorized
Equipment List (AEL): Item 4.11 - Application Program,
