Local GIS & Real-Time Partner Intelligence
Combining Local GIS with the Safety Network
The RapidSOS UNITE GIS Module is a premium upgrade that transforms response by combining your authoritative local data with critical layers from the RapidSOS Safety Network. This solves the “swivel chair” problem by centralizing disjointed intelligence—from hydrants to live weather—into one platform.
You Invested in GIS. Now Put That Data to Work.
The Problem
Nearly every emergency communications center (ECC) has invested heavily in creating accurate, NG911-ready local GIS data. However, this valuable, life-saving intelligence is often locked in separate views, forcing telecommunicators to “swivel chair” between disconnected systems to piece together situational awareness. The status quo of static, generic commercial maps or costly, hard-to-maintain self-hosted solutions is a risk to both operational efficiency and system resilience.
Unified, Authoritative, and Rich with Context
Eliminate friction. The UNITE GIS Module centralizes critical data—from local layers to the Safety Network—into a single screen. This unified view ensures telecommunicators guide first responders faster and more accurately.
Improve Situational Awareness, Streamline Every Workflow
Integrate your authoritative local GIS layers, such as address points, road centerlines, responder boundaries, and hydrants, directly into UNITE as selectable layers.
Go beyond static maps with specialized layers from trusted partners. visualize power outage maps, active drone flight paths with live video, rail lines, wildfires, connected building diagrams (Connected Sites), and more.
Overlay essential live data including real-time traffic, weather watches and warnings, and active hurricane tracking to anticipate risks before responders arrive.
The GIS Module automatically uses your agency’s local geocoder first for address search, cross streets, and common place names, eliminating the need to use separate tools for local lookups.
