This app is for the usage for Canadian Coast Guard Auxiliary or SAR team. This application is used by our volunteer members to receive emergency calls, or other situations on the water. The configuration is that each unit has one or more dispatchers (who create the calls and select the members to answer them) and member decide to be available or not to the call. The dispatcher can see how long it takes the member to get to the boat. If the member does not respond within 30 seconds, the system sends an SMS.. Cette application est destinée à l’usage de la Garde côtière auxiliaire canadienne. Elle est utilisée par nos membres bénévoles pour recevoir des appels d’urgence ou d’autres situations en mer. Chaque unité dispose d’un ou plusieurs répartiteurs (qui créent les appels et sélectionnent les membres pour y répondre), et les membres décident s’ils sont disponibles ou non pour répondre à l’appel. Le répartiteur peut voir combien de temps le membre met pour arriver au bateau. Si le membre ne répond pas dans les 30 secondes, le système envoie un SMS.
