Australian fire app focuses on firefighter safety

摘要

When fighting fires, crews are structured in a hierarchical fashion. Strike teams are coordinated by strike team leaders who respond to a sector commander, who in turn, works under the control of an incident commander. The incident commander is ultimately responsible to the state operations center. CFS uses the UHF South Australian Government Radio Network (GRN) for command and control. The state government recently awarded Motorola a contract to upgrade the network, which comprises about 220 radio sites, from SmartZone technology to the Project 25 (P25) standard. For fireground communications, CFS uses analog VHF radios, predominantly in simplex mode to avoid tying up the GRN trunked network resources.
