Australian GPS Tracking

Have you ever been on the edge of your seat during your favorite television show, anxiously awaiting the arrival of the EMS and fire engines after a crash scene?  Were you left wondering if they would arrive in enough time to save the victims? Well, thanks to Australia’s newest innovation—a tracking device—the ETA on a real accident scene will be significantly shortened.  A tracking device, which is attached to the engine, will enhance firefighters’ capability in communication, response time, and aiding victims.

First, this tracking device enhances a firefighter’s capability for communication. Instead of relaying messages over the radio, which can be distorted by static, firefighters are automatically located   through the use of the tracking device. Not only does this device locate firefighters, but it also detects specific locations without a firefighter’s foreknowledge of the territory or confusion when consulting a paper map.

Secondly, this tracking device enhances a firefighter’s capability concerning response time. Time is saved due to a fire station’s ability to dispatch the closest fire engine. Being part of the Sydney community previously led a person to expect delay time in emergencies because fire engines only responded to specific areas and along certain routes throughout Australia. However, a tracking device eliminates this problem and shortens ETA due to the fact that waiting for a specific engine in a specific route is no longer necessary.

Lastly, this tracking device enhances a firefighter’s capability to aid injured victims. Firefighters are always on call, whether giving a demonstration, dealing with a different emergency, or checking safety features of public buildings and houses. With the use of this tracking device, firefighters have the capability of responding to an emergency at any given time or place. Over 70 percent of fire engines in the Sydney area are equipped with this device, increasing the survival percentage of victims.

People within the community continually benefit from the innovations that are implemented on a daily basis. Australia’s ability to apply this new GPS tracking device to their fire engines will improve communication abilities, save crucial time, and lower the number of lives lost in serious accidents.
