The Alabama Department of Homeland Security has developed a geospational tool based on Google Earth to create and leverage a common operating picture.

Large volumes of GIS data are integrated to develop firewall-internet based tools for graphics that bridge communications across agencies serving both providers and users, especially response teams.

Google Earth and ALDHS continue to develop the platform for the needs of situational awareness through the integration of the even more information sources.

This is a forward-looking framework for security, environmental protection, emergency response, asset tracking, risk assessment and more.

It suggests a science fiction narrative that has come to life. Check out the YouTube link.
