Web tool to help in a crisis
Agencies can log in to WebEOC, supplied by Wellington firm Critchlow Associates, to view situation reports, track emergency services, check resources such as hospital staff and beds, and log and respond to requests for assistance.
Maps, graphics and media updates can be fed into the system and users see only the information relevant to them.
Critchlow emergency management solutions executive director Steve Critchlow says WebEOC mimics the whiteboards traditionally used to coordinate emergency responses. “People who have never seen it before, and who may not have any prior training on computer systems, are up and running in as little as 15 minutes.”
