Fire and Rescue Communication Network
How fire stations, the control room and fire engines stay connected, with radio as the main link and mobile data as a backup.

What this diagram shows
- The control room links to every station over a private network
- Engines use digital radio, with 4G as backup
- Hydrant and building data are on each engine's tablet
Prompt used
Network for a city fire service: the fire control room connects to five fire stations over a private MPLS network. Each station has alerting equipment (bells, printers). Fire engines communicate by TETRA digital radio through radio towers, and by 4G to the dispatch system as backup. Tablets on engines show hydrant maps and building plans from the GIS server in the control room.

Emergency 112 Dispatch System
An integrated emergency response system like India's 112: calls, SMS and panic-app alerts reach one centre, which dispatches the nearest police, fire or ambulance unit.
Emergency Call to Dispatch Sequence
What happens in the minutes after someone dials 112: call answered, location fixed, incident created, nearest unit dispatched and the caller updated.
Emergency Incident Lifecycle
The states of an emergency incident in a dispatch system, from first call to closure, including duplicate calls about the same event.
Disaster Early Warning Alerts
How warnings for cyclones, floods and earthquakes reach people: sensor and forecast data, a decision by the authority, and cell broadcast, SMS and sirens to the affected area.
Online Police Complaint Workflow
How an online police complaint is handled: registration, assignment to the right police station, investigation and updates to the complainant.
City CCTV Command Centre
Where a city surveillance system runs: cameras at junctions, local recorders, a central video management system and analytics that raise alerts in the command centre.
