Computer Aided Dispatch (CAD) Mapping

Larimore’s CAD Mapping gives your dispatchers a wealth of critical information at a single glance. It is the ideal complement to the fully integrated Larimore CAD System.

A sample of the benefits the CAD Mapping system provides include:

• Once call locations are validated in CAD, they appear on the Map
• Map displays icons that show the units that have been dispatched to the call
• Extensive information about the call is displayed, including street address, type of call, units assigned to the call. More information is provided upon a right mouse click
• The map automatically re-positions to display each 911 call and all calls around it
• System has unique icon to quickly identify calls in progress
• The map automatically updates each CAD event’s location or call code changes
• Non-911 calls can also be mapped with a keystroke, for calls that escalate
• Dispatchers can “zoom in” and pan any location to see more detail

Multiple Map “layers” display only what Dispatchers want to see:

• Various types of information on the map are each contained in their own “layer” that can be turned on and off by the user
• Optional layers include: fire hydrants, lakes/rivers, railroad tracks, etc. If hydrant layer is used, hydrants can be labeled as active, inactive, out of service, etc.
• Layers can be added after the initial installation
