Improving Public Safety Efforts With CentralSquare’s MobileX Enterprise

In a survey conducted by the National Institute of Standards and Technology, researchers interviewed over 7,000 public safety communications professionals on how they use mobile technology in their day-to-day work. Approximately 95% of respondents said they use mobile devices on a daily basis to do their job effectively.  

Mobile technology in public safety is not a matter of convenience – it is a necessity that agencies can use to save more lives and enhance communication. Agencies must utilize the power of mobile applications to improve accessibility and effectiveness in safeguarding communities during emergencies.  

As the role of innovative technology continues to grow in public safety, it’s important that agencies remain up-to-date by investing in modern solutions.  

The Importance of Mobile Technology 

Mobile technology provides both responders and citizens with real-time access to critical information. During emergencies, mobile devices serve as lifelines, offering instant alerts and notifications through emergency alert systems, ensuring that individuals are informed about potential threats and necessary actions.  

Specifically for responders in the field, mobile solutions give them the ability to report and track incidents, upload digital evidence such as photos and videos, as well as share and access crucial real-time data to streamline response efforts. 

These systems also enable responders to visualize incidents on maps, allocate resources efficiently and optimize routes for quicker arrivals at the scene. 

CentralSquare MobileX Enterprise 

CentralSquare MobileX Enterprise is a new platform that brings together innovation and necessity. It is an extension of our CAD Enterprise solution  – giving you all the functionality of your CAD system at your fingertips to enhance emergency response.  

When out in the community, responders need the tools that keep them operable, anywhere at any time.  

The responsive design of MobileX Enterprise is a game changer in mobile technology. The adaptability of the system ensures that responders have everything they need regardless of location and device – whether that’s in an emergency vehicle or on foot. 

From in-vehicle tablets for fire and EMS units to tablets used by paramedics in hospitals, the software ensures that vital information is accessible when and where it matters most. Even patrol officers working beyond traditional vehicles, such as boats or bikes, can harness the power of this application. Its compatibility with iOS, Android and Windows platforms ensures that all users, regardless of device preference, can optimize their experience. 

Seamless Experience, Regardless of Device 

One of the standout features of CentralSquare MobileX is that the system provides a seamless user experience across devices.

This responsive platform can even be used with a Samsung DeX/docking system to transform a mobile phone or tablet into a desktop-like experience in the office without a separate device or app. 

Enhanced Configuration and Customization 

The software’s user experience is enhanced through its configurable nature. Admins can customize the application to match agency requirements. This includes the introduction of features like tags, such as crisis intervention, providing vital information at a glance. The advantage extends to updates and configurations, which are seamlessly deployed across all platforms and operating systems. 

Functionality for Optimal Efficiency 

CentralSquare MobileX is not only user-friendly but also exceptionally functional. A notable feature is the “Linked Incidents” capability, which allows users to view incidents connected to their current case. The integrated map within the system enhances situational awareness, enabling users to easily configure base maps and operational layers. 

Enhanced Messaging and Search Capabilities 

With the software, messaging capabilities have also been elevated. It enables users to send and receive messages from both units and users, fostering seamless communication within agencies. Search functionality has also been refined, now encompassing premises and assets. Users can effortlessly search premise and asset data within their CAD database, streamlining information retrieval.
