Preplans
In the Active911 app, preplans are stored as attachments to map markers.
How to attach preplans to map makers.
Note: In order to make markers, one must be logged in with the following User Permissions: Edit locations
TO ADD A MAP MARKER FROM THE CONSOLE, LOGIN AND GO TO MAP DATA.
THEN, SELECT ADD LOCATION.
ENTER THE INFORMATION FOR YOUR MAP MARKER, AND
THEN YOU CAN UPLOAD YOUR PREPLAN DOCUMENTS.
ACTIVE 9-1-1 CAN SUPPORT A VARIETY OF PRE PLAN FORMATS.
YOU CAN ALSO GIVE THE RESOURCE A HEADING TO HELP LABEL IT FOR OTHER MEMBERS OR MUTUAL AID AGENCIES…
AND ALSO ADD NOTES.
PREPLANS CAN ALSO INCLUDE P-D-F’S WITH CLICKABLE LINKS
SUCH AS LINKS TO LIVE FEEDS.
THIS CAN SAVE VALUABLE TIME IN ACCESSING VIDEO FEEDS.
INSTEAD OF HAVING TO PHYSICALLY LOCATE THE SURVEILLANCE EQUIPMENT AND GET PASSWORDS, YOU CAN CLICK RIGHT IN AND VIEW THE FEED FROM ANY DEVICE.
TO VIEW YOUR PREPLANS, LOCATE THE MAP MARKER THAT YOU WANT TO VIEW, THEN PRESS IT TO SEE THE DESCRIPTION.
THEN, PRESS RESOURCES TO SEE ANY ATTACHED DOCUMENTS.
USE PHOTOS TO HELP MEMBERS LOCATE HYDRANTS, ESPECIALLY IN AREAS THAT GET SIGNIFICANT SNOWFALL.
MUTUAL AID AGENCIES CAN ACCESS ALL OF YOUR MAP ASSETS BY SIMPLY ADDING ONE OF THEIR MEMBERS WITH “EDIT LOCATION” PERMISSIONS TO YOUR ACCOUNT, AND HAVING THEM ADD YOUR ADMIN WITH THE SAME PERMISSION.
THEN SELECT “SHARE MAP DATA” UNDER THE MAP DATA TAB, AND SELECT THE AGENCY YOU WANT TO SHARE MAP DATA WITH.
IF YOU HAVE BUSINESSES IN YOUR AREA THAT HAVE HIGH RISK OPERATIONS, LIKE CHEMICAL PLANTS OR OIL REFINERIES, YOU CAN ASK THEM TO JOIN ACTIVE911 AND CREATE THEIR OWN PREPLANS AND SHARE THEM WITH YOUR AGENCY.
THAT WAY YOU’LL ALWAYS HAVE UPDATED INFORMATION THAT WILL HELP YOU KEEP EVERYONE SAFE WHEN THERE’S AN INCIDENT.
