Call up information instantaneously at the press of a button
The advantages of the EMEREC system can be well illustrated with practical examples. The Amstetten fire department is responsible for a section of the West Autobahn. If an accident occurs there, the operational team can already get a picture of the scene during the trip: via EMEREC, they have access to the corresponding traffic cameras of the ASFINAG (Austrian Autobahn operator). Dispatched vehicles can be informed about the quickest way to the scene, which can be displayed on the map. The digital vehicle rescue cards contain information, for example, on where in the car involved in the accident the battery is located or how the engine hood opens and struts can most easily be cut through in an emergency with the hydraulic rescue equipment.
For accidents with dangerous substances, the database from Hommel can be accessed immediately and therefore the right measures can be taken for the relevant materials. With EMEREC, checklists can also be called up to make sure that no details have been overlooked. So if needed, the airbag control can be displayed as a checklist in an instant and worked through step by step, for example. The EMEREC system also automatically saves an operational log book. This is very useful for later operational debriefings.
