Security concerns are often spatial concerns — proximity to risk,  access control, evacuation routing, scenario planning and global crisis monitoring.  Accessing and analyzing data in a spatial context allows public safety and security professionals to understand critical infrastructure and be prepared to provide the best tactical response necessary to save lives or mitigate risk. 

THE CHALLENGE

Security presents a number of challenges to any organization, ranging from focused building level access control to global risk assessment and emergency response.

Some of these major challenges include:

• Installation/Building security
• Risk Assessment
• Emergency Management Planning
• Crisis Management
• Business Continuity

THE SOLUTION

InVision Secure^℠addresses these needs by providing a common operational framework, one which exposes facility assets from a global perspective down to the room level. This solution offers a series of tools to extend the power of geographic information systems (GIS) inside the building footprint, addressing public safety and security concerns and revealing critical infrastructure. Delivered as a suite of software applications and data collection services, InVision Secure^℠supports Police, Fire, OEM, Counterterrorism, and Security professionals wherever their workflows occur: in the office, the field, or the command center.

For the security community, leveraging GIS inside buildings yields tremendous benefits.  With accurate up-to-date building maps, security officials can better identify operational risks in any given building and be better prepared to respond in the event of an incident.  With these building models, firefighters, policemen, and other emergency response personnel can more easily navigate buildings in times of crisis.

The same technology can be harnessed to allow security teams to effectively monitor the protection of their buildings and create better evacuation plans.  By providing accurate maintenance records, InVision Secure^℠helps facility managers keep their buildings and equipment in compliance with public safety codes and inspections. 

More than ever, knowledge of facility assets and personnel are crucial in evaluating impact, reacting to unfolding events, and preparing for mitigation efforts in the wake of the unexpected. On a global scale, this means being able to react to catastrophic events, whether they occur in Jacksonville or Japan.
