Harris County - Next Generation First Responder (NGFR) Case Study: Sensors

Body

This case study describes how DHS S&T integrated sensors during the NGFR – Harris County Operational Experimentation (OpEx), taking real-time sensor data and displaying it on unified situational awareness applications to give the Incident Commander, command staff and first responders the right information at the right time. It provides an overview of the systems used, the challenges encountered and the solution implemented for the OpEx, as well as considerations that any public safety agency should think through if they intend to implement Internet of Things (IoT) sensors for their organization.
