Providing immediate access to vital information while in the field enhances operations and is essential to keeping emergency personnel safe. vMobile is an application designed to keep first responders connected as they respond to calls for service. It enables officers to continually receive updates and remain in contact with dispatch and other officers in the field. Points of interest, location of calls, and the location of responders when they leave their vehicles are all displayed on an integrated map using the device’s Global Positioning System. Acting as a digital notebook, vMobile empowers officers with features needed to perform their duties efficiently. By leveraging the camera-scanning capability of mobile devices, vMobile is able to read licenses and registrations, making typing unnecessary. As an officer runs queries, data is simultaneously collected for report writing. vMobile also intuitively recognizes orally-dictated notes, which officers can later use to build report narratives. Compatible with Versaterm's product suite (VMC 7.4, vCAD 7.5 and vRMS 7.5+).
