SCOUT ™ Incident Command System
Special
Crisis Operations for Urban Terrain
Kinetic Solutions developed and implemented SCOUT™,
an
advanced tactical response support system originally developed as an incident
planning tool to aid first responders during crisis situations. SCOUT™ allows
tactical response commanders to efficiently visualize the exact layout of the
exterior and interior of buildings, in order to effectively deploy response
teams to minimize the harm to people and property. SCOUT™ provides a user-friendly interface that integrates the use
of:
- aerial photography
- digital floor plans of the building
- wireless video
- 360°
immersive iPIX photography
- CAD drawings that are vector overlays containing
technical information for each building including HVAC, plumbing, electrical
wiring, and fiber optic cabling
- and an underlying intelligent database
containing detailed information on a room’s physical assets
SCOUT™
Implementations
World Agricultural Forum Demonstration
In May 2003,
Kinetic Solutions implemented SCOUT™ for the St. Louis Metro Police Department
(SLMPD), in preparation for potential violence at the World Agricultural Forum
(WAF) demonstration held in St. Louis.
The SLMPD used the SCOUT™ technology as an event management tool
allowing commanders to plan, monitor and assess both the pre-planning stage of
crises responses and the execution of the WAF demonstration. SCOUT™, as an event management tool,
provided the SLMPD with unprecedented information and spatial data to be able
to make effective decisions in the event of a crisis situation.
Code

Kinetic Solutions has also been awarded a contract by
Code Consultants, Inc. (CCI), a Fire
Protection Engineering and Life Safety Consulting firm, to customize the
SCOUTä Incident Command System. SCOUT™ technology will enhance Code Consultant’s goals of
providing clients with innovative and practical business solutions, and will
automate the mapping, reporting and communication processes related to Fire
Code violations within buildings. SCOUT™
improves Code Consultant’s ability to relay information to their clients in a
rapid and easily understood manner through the inclusion of reporting and
follow-up functions displaying the required and completed corrective action,
