GeoComm, a leading provider of geographic information and communication systems, has been awarded a Texas Department of Information Resources (DIR) contract DIR-TSO-3441 for GeoComm’s public safety software.

GeoComm is pleased to announce its selection by the Missouri 911 Service Board for a Statewide Next Generation 9-1-1 (NG9-1-1) GIS Services Project aimed at helping the State prepare for a future NG9-1-1 implementation.

We are excited to announce our partnership with the Pennsylvania Northern Tier Consortium, a group of ten counties serving a population of over 650,000 people, and the North Central Region, a group of eleven Pennsylvania counties serving over 180,000 people.  This work will expand on the statewide NG9-1-1 GIS Data GAP Analysis project GeoComm completed in late 2019 with the Pennsylvania Emergency Management Agency (PEMA).

The National 911 Program describes the development of GIS data for use by NG9-1-1 systems as one of the largest impacts on the NG9-1-1 implementation cycle at the local level. Therefore, as local agencies work towards NG9-1-1 data readiness, it is imperative that GIS data meets the requirements of being available, high quality, and accurate. This local GIS data becomes one of the key pieces of Public Safety Location Intelligence™ as it is paramount to saving lives and property. Are you ready? Join Kathy Liljequist, GeoComm GIS Subject Matter Expert, as she discusses the GIS aspect of Public Safety Location Intelligence with public safety and GIS teams across the country.

GeoComm partnered with Stearns County, Minnesota, and a local non-profit in 2019 on an initiative aimed at mapping the location information for Automatic Emergency Defibrillators (AEDs) in Stearns County. The goal of the project was to empower 9-1-1 PSAPs with AED location information so PSAP call takers could inform 9-1-1 callers of nearby AED locations....

Today, most people expect that 9-1-1 call centers can pinpoint their exact location during emergency calls, even inside of buildings.  But you do not have to look far to find high profile cases where challenges locating 9-1-1 callers indoors have contributed to increased emergency response times, and even tragic outcomes.

GeoComm, a leading provider of Public Safety Location Intelligence ™, is excited to announce the availability of GeoComm Maps in early 2021.  GeoComm Maps is a public safety mapping platform that is designed to unlock the critical lifesaving potential of indoor maps for 9-1-1 call takers and emergency responders. 

GeoComm is excited to announce the addition of Susan Nelson to their sales team as Territory Sales Manager covering the Southeastern United States region. Susan joins the GeoComm sales team with over 20 years in the public safety industry.
