Wireless carriers are beginning to deliver X, Y and Z coordinate values with wireless 9-1-1 calls. Great value lies in transforming information into geospatial data. Leveraging this data to create actionable outputs - plans, graphics, webmaps and apps - presents an opportunity for useful 3D GIS data that, among other things, contextualizes this coordinate value information with the best response route, both outdoors and indoors.
This value begins with the process of acquiring highly accurate location data inside facilities. The best way to accomplish this is with site visits verifying floorplans and enhancing inside location information to give continuity to emergency response. The result of this process is both indoor mapping and improved, verified sub-addressing. DATAMARK and CRG will discuss their process for acquiring indoor mapping data and some concepts of 3D GIS that are relevant to the discussion.
