Incident Response for Firefighters
With FLORIAN®, emergency responders can maintain crucial communications while navigating intricate and often unpredictable terrain. Our FLORIAN system specifically addresses the unique challenges posed by both wildland and urban environments, so responders can make informed, critical decisions in the field.
Multi-agency Wildland Preparedness Exercise
3AM successfully completed two full days of tracking multiple disparate devices – Samsung xCover cell phones, Somewear Labs and Garmin Satellite trackers, all on a single shared mapping experience, FLORIAN. This is just one of many training operations that 3AM has been involved with throughout the years. We strive to continue testing, adapting, and improving our products for the amazing men and women who rely on it. A special thank you to San Diego Fire-Rescue Department, Lakeside Fire Protection District and Chula Vista Fire Department.
FLORIAN Features
FLORIAN® offers comprehensive features including route planning, real-time location tracking and elevation data, all accessible both online and offline.
Touch-Enabled Map Annotations, Geofencing, and Automated Alerts
Write directly on the map with your finger or pointer. Mark safe zones, danger areas, and other critical information in real time.
Voice Activation and Auto-Transcription
FLORIAN’s automatic transcription and voice command capabilities enable hands-free operations and backup communications systems when radio traffic gets heavy.
AVL and Personnel Tracking
First responders are tracked from the moment they leave the vehicle Automated Personnel Tracking (APL). Locating personnel at any elevation and the path they took to get there.
3D and Satellite Mapping
3D and satellite views of the location improve navigation and provide a clear look at the area prior to arrival.
Multi-Agency Interoperability
Easily share situational information, pictures, videos, reports, and media across mutual aid providers and jurisdictions.
Offline Capability & Cloud Back-Up
Receive incident details on multiple devices that continuously sync, even in low-communication environments. Incident reports are stored automatically.
“The most important thing FLORIAN provides is proper safety, prevention and preparation. Preventing a terrible situation like a mayday is key.”

Case Study
Urban Environment
3AM Innovations partnered with the San Bernardino Fire Service to thoroughly assess FLORIAN’s performance in an urban environment. In this rigorous simulation, firefighting teams were tracked with FLORIAN-enabled smartphones as they navigated a multi-story structure. Outside, the Chief managed operations with the FLORIAN incident command platform. Utilizing the Workspaces view, he was able to allocate resources, making annotations directly on the screen, and monitor the movements of each firefighter in real time. This dramatically enhanced the Chief’s situational awareness and made critical information readily available in a single screen, ensuring resources were deployed in the most efficient manner.
During the exercise, a firefighter initiated a mayday call to test the speed and accuracy of FLORIAN’s AI speech detection. Instantly, the Chief was able to identify the precise location of the distressed firefighter, send the nearest responder to help, and bring the distressed firefighter to safety in less than 90 seconds.
Case Study
Wildland Environment
3AM trekked deep into the hills above San Bernardino, California, alongside 25 wildland crew members in a simulated exercise to put our FLORIAN platform to the test. Our software successfully and consistently followed individual participants throughout the event, tracking devices while they were both online and offline (while in LTE-denied environments). Participants were able to deliver on-scene video from their devices directly back to command. Attendees unanimously agreed that 3AM’s ability to seamlessly combine connectivity, online and offline operation, and triple-axis tracking capabilities alongside real-time personnel management was in a standalone class.
