San Bernardino County Fire (SBCoFD) was named a finalist in the IDC Government Insights’ sixth annual Smart Cities North America Awards (SCNAA) in the Next-Generation Emergency Services category. The awards recognize the progress North American municipalities have made in executing Smart Cities projects, as well as provide a forum for sharing best practices to help accelerate smart city development in the region.
As the next step in the nomination process, SBCoFD and IDC encourage the public to vote on their favorite candidate on prompt number 5, as well as the rest of the prompts found at http://bit.ly/3JKtpvn. Voting remains open through March 31st. Winners will be honored at Smart Cities Connect being held May 16-18 in Denver, CO.
SBCoFD provides a roadmap for the use of innovation and technology to deploy resources efficiently and safely. We are a demonstrated leader in the regional use of geospatial enabled common operating pictures such as Esri, FirstDue, Tablet Command, and mission-critical computer-aided dispatch via Central Square. In turn, this allows for a more efficient response and community connections to enhance public education information.
SBCoFD uses futuristic technology such as autonomous UAVs (drones) which are planned for various use cases and in the future will identify ignition, and provide suppression, logistics, and intelligence during wildfires. We also utilize data from the community to better attend to their EMS needs using programs such as Community Connect.
Our Fire District is well-known for our willingness to partner with adjacent public safety agencies, academic institutions, and international technology developers (hhpberlin, ImageTrend, Intterra and Deccan) to create an intelligent approach to service delivery. The Public-Private Partnership (P3) enables the transformation from a 911 phone-based system into a top-tier Command, Control, Communication, Computing, and Cyber-Physical SMART system with advanced Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (C5ISR) for saving lives while providing safer and more secure communities.
