TAK is a cloud-native server application that facilitates exchange of situational awareness data.

Team Awareness Kit: Tactical Situational Awareness Solution

The Public Safety Communications (PSC) Identity, Credential, and Access Management (ICAM) Working Group (WG) created a Federation System checklist to provide tips on how to approach data management practices, interoperability techniques, and cybersecurity challenges for the Public Safety Community (Community).

Marcello is a customizable, Web-based tool that integrates oceanic and atmospheric forecasting, plume modeling, and real-time information updates that can help decision-makers and emergency responders prepare for, respond to, and recover from events. The tool overlays multiple datasets, model outputs, and information sources in a single, user-friendly interface.

Developed by the Center for Visualization and Data Analytics at Purdue University, a Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Science and Technology (S&T) Center of Excellence, Social Media Analytics and Reporting Toolkit (SMART) is a social media analysis system that provides analysts with scalable analysis and visualization of social media posts. The system uses topic extraction, combinations of key word filters, word cluster examination, and unusual event detection to provide situational awareness and improve decision-making for time-critical tasks.

In an emergency, it is vital that first responders are able to communicate and share information, regardless of the agency they represent. Yet, interoperability and information integration remain a challenge when it comes to real-time, multi-agency coordination.

To address this challenge, the Center for Visualization and Data Analytics (CVADA) at Rutgers, the State University of New Jersey, a Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Science and Technology (S&T) Center of Excellence, developed the Mobile Computing Application Platform (MCAP) in partnership with the U.S. Army Tank Automotive Research, Development and Engineering Center.

P25 CAP provides the public with an opportunity to review and comment on Compliance Assessment Bulletins and reporting templates before they are finalized and published. These tables outline comments that were submitted to DHS S&T, along with a response to each comment.

DHS is opening a public comment period to review the P25 Compliance Assessment Bulletin (CAB) addressing Testing Rules. DHS S&T has issued multiple P25 CAP Common Air Interface (CAI) Testing Requirements CABs that address communication equipment’s performance, conformance and interoperability.

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Science and Technology Directorate (S&T) continues its efforts to streamline the Supplier’s Declaration of Compliance (SDOC) and Summary Test Report (STR) templates in an effort to make P25 CAP documentation more useful to end users, as well as reduce the burden on manufacturers and P25 CAP recognized laboratories. DHS will now open a public comment period to review the P25 Compliance Assessment Bulletin (CAB) addressing Baseline Inter-RF Sub-System Interface and Console Sub-System Interface Interoperability Testing Requirements, as well as the latest version of the SDOC template.
