Use Cases
Wildland Fire
As our wildlands continue to evolve, influenced by both natural processes and urban expansion, a pressing concern emerges: the heightened risk of wildfires. With this growth, the potential for larger and more destructive fires escalates. These larger fires demand increased resources – more engines, more personnel, more air support – and, crucially, flawless communication systems to effectively combat the threat and minimize damage.
Tracking Field Operations in Comms-Denied Areas
3AM trekked deep into the hills above San Bernadino alongside 25 wildland crew members in a simulated exercise to put our FLORIAN® platform to the test. This proof-of-concept demonstration set out to measure the accuracy of the platform’s tracking on X and Y axes in a communications-challenged environment.
Structural Fire
With 3AM’s software, emergency responders can seamlessly maintain vital connectivity while navigating the intricate and often unpredictable terrain of densely populated urban centers. Our software offers comprehensive features, including route planning, real-time location tracking, and elevation data, all accessible both online and offline. These capabilities are specifically designed to address the unique challenges posed by urban environments, ensuring that responders have the critical information they need when they need it most.
Technical Rescue
Navigating a challenging environment during a rescue increases the risk for the responders and takes an exceptional level of precision and focus. Reinforce your team’s confidence that while their focus is on the mission, your focus is on their safety.
Los Angeles County Water Rescue Exercise
3AM Innovations partnered with the LA County Fire Department Lifeguard Operations to assess FLORIAN’s performance in tracking incident response on the water. With approximately 75 miles of coastline, LA County has a large contingent of lifeguards. However, they have not previously had the ability to collect data from the incidents they handle. Data that could be invaluable for reporting, training, and tactical planning. FLORIAN was enlisted to demonstrate a more effective method for tracking lifeguard operations.
Over two days and at two different beaches, Manhattan Beach and Hermosa Beach, FLORIAN’s tracking capabilities were thoroughly tested using LTE-enabled watches. With this simple wearable device, lifeguards could easily initiate an incident response with the push of a button and close out the incident by pressing a second button once completed. The water rescue exercise demonstrated FLORIAN’s reliable connectivity on the beaches, with consistent tracking of lifeguards both on boats and while swimming back to shore. Additionally, FLORIAN’s voice-activated Mayday feature proved effective even in the water. The exercise was a significant success, showcasing FLORIAN’s effectiveness and value for water-based incidents.
Special Events
3AM’s software and comprehensive suite of services have a well-established history of success in the Special Events space, where we play a pivotal role in bolstering security teams by facilitating seamless resource management, incident tracking, communication, and meticulous documentation during high-profile, large-scale events. One standout feature which sets 3AM’s software apart is its elevation tracking functionality, enabling users to pinpoint individuals’ locations, whether they are below ground or on different floors, a particularly vital capability when personnel are spread over a wide area with multiple levels of elevation.
Arlington County Uses FLORIAN Live During Fourth of July
3AM had the honor of supporting the teams handling the Arlington, VA 4th of July celebrations. FLORIAN was used to great effect. Keeping track of resources and assets, delivering situational information, and enabling robust communication even through immense traffic.
