XSC Regional Intterra Operations
Your Real-Time Situational Awareness and Decision Support Tool
You have more than a single incident to manage. You have tradeoffs to consider and quick decisions to make across your operational area.
Intterra takes the complexity of your CAD activity and makes it visual and understandable at a glance and the view is dynamic; same as the work you do every day. Zoom out and see everything, or zoom in and see all the detail for a specific location or planned operation.
By pairing the real-time CAD data with local geographic information, emergency preplan data and all hazard response planning, a platform emerges that enables mutual cooperation when it matters most.
Santa Clara County, Santa Clara, and Milpitas Fire Departments along with Santa Clara County EMS have been working to build the foundation of this multi-agency decision support tool, however your agencies participation is vital to the success of this project. When agencies work together to share information we collectively become safer, more efficient, and more capable of working hard when things are at their worst. Using Intterra in conjunction with a state of the art PrePlan tool called First Due Size Up as foundational platforms, this decision support tool will permit access to real-time geographic information and intelligence to help first responders make decisions, from firefighter to duty officer.
