Revolutionizing Fire Department Operations
Firefighters often rely on outdated, static floorplans or cumbersome PDFs for pre-planning and indoor inspections. This new integration marks a significant shift by introducing interactive, dynamic mapping capabilities tailored for first responders. Through the EPR FireWorks dashboard, responders can now seamlessly view and interact with detailed property maps, complete with labeled points of interest such as emergency exits, stairways, HVAC systems, and hazardous material locations. This level of granular detail ensures that fire departments are better equipped to plan and execute their operations effectively.
Gilad Preger, CEO of EPR FireWorks, emphasized the importance of this integration, stating, “At EPR FireWorks, our mission is to deliver technology that enhances operational efficiency and saves lives. Partnering with Mappedin allows us to extend our capabilities and provide first responders with the actionable intelligence they need to navigate emergencies with confidence. We are here to make their jobs safer and easier.”
Enhanced Mapping Capabilities for First Responders
Mappedin’s powerful platform lies at the heart of this partnership, offering advanced tools to create, edit, and share high-quality maps with ease. The integration allows responders to transition from outdated manual methods to a streamlined, AI-driven process. Static floorplans are instantly converted into interactive 3D maps, eliminating inefficiencies and enabling real-time insights. These maps provide multi-level navigation and precise details about interior layouts and assets, improving situational awareness during emergencies.
Additionally, through their Maps for Good initiative, Mappedin provides first responders with free access to its Pro platform, enabling fire departments to digitize entire communities and streamline their workflows without incurring additional costs. This initiative highlights the shared commitment of EPR FireWorks and Mappedin to improving public safety through technology. Hongwei Liu, Founder and CEO of Mappedin, expressed his enthusiasm for the collaboration, saying, “This partnership is a game-changer for emergency response teams, offering the ability to easily make detailed maps of buildings that enable better pre-planning in complex environments swiftly and efficiently. We’re empowering firefighters and other first responders with all the tools they need to create and maintain complete indoor intelligence.”
The ability to integrate detailed property data with geospatial context enhances situational awareness during emergencies. Moreover, various data layers supported by the platform give firefighters the ability to plan and execute their operations with unparalleled accuracy. Within the EPR FireWorks dashboard, responders can access mapped properties with a single click. They can then view property layouts alongside satellite imagery, offering real-world context to identify access points, hazards, and critical infrastructure before arriving on the scene. Preger further noted, “This integration is more than a technological advancement; it’s a commitment to our first responders. By leveraging Mappedin’s capabilities, we’re ensuring that firefighters and emergency service teams have the tools they need to protect communities effectively.” Together, EPR FireWorks and Mappedin are building a safer, smarter future.
