The Digital Building™ EMERGENCY is a blueprint-based system designed to assist Fire Departments and Emergency Response teams by providing them with crucial building and area information before they arrive at a call site.

The Digital Building™ EMERGENCY brings all the knowledge of building principals into a visual program that delivers vital information immediately in case of an emergency.

Our technology allows paper based blueprints and critical building information to be imaged, stored and accessed digitally while retaining full scaling functionality. This provides Emergency Response Personnel with accurate measurements of floor space and distances between entrances, exits, hose hook-ups and incident locations.

Additionally, our online submission system and preformatted Quick Reaction Plans allow emergency responders to quickly view key information such as evacuation routes, hazardous materials locations, passwords, facility system codes and contact information.

Many emergency systems provide details of driving routes, exteriors and satellite views... Only The Digital Building™ EMERGENCY gets you accurately INSIDE the building!

Emergency- SYSTEM FEATURES

DETAILED INFORMATION
The Digital Building™ EMERGENCY captures entire floor plans and structural details for a complete facility, making the data immediately accessible and allowing emergency crews to be fully aware of the entire building layout and any potential trouble spots well in advance of entering the structure. This can be the difference between a rescue and a recovery operation.

Team chiefs and crew members can utilize The Digital Building Emergency to access, view, and print the following information:

• Location of stairwells, elevators, entrances and exits
• Layout of sprinklers, extinguishers, utility mains and hose hookups
• Mechanical and Electrical systems locations and layouts
• Potential “hot spots”, such as hazardous materials storage areas

ON DEMAND AVAILABILITY
Critical information can be retrieved while in transit to the call site, or upon arriving. Immediate access to this type of information can save precious time, which in turn, can prevent property damage, or even worse, injury or loss of life for residents or emergency response personnel. The retrieval of information is:

• Made on demand and on location
• Available to and distributable by Command & Control Personnel
• Available from laptops on the fire engines (effectively replacing the clumsy, unreliable paper books currently used)
• Available on handheld PDAs used by emergency personnel
• Constantly and automatically updated through local servers
• Simultaneously available to building owners, managers and rescue personnel to ensure the most up to date and accurate information

PREPLANNING TOOL
The Digital Building™ EMERGENCY can help in creating and practicing disaster preparation and emergency evacuation plans. You can also have free online access to the Quick Reaction Plan prepared by your local fire department. Storage features of the program allow the city fire departments and state and national agencies to:

• Keep hundreds of thousands of details on every building in their jurisdiction, up-to-date and at their fingertips
• Disperse life-saving information to all emergency crews in a matter of seconds
• Digitally make and store detailed, rescue oriented plans

FEATURES AVAILABLE TO ALL THE DIGITAL BUILDING SYSTEMS:

EASY TO USE
A friendly, intuitive, graphical interface allows users to quickly retrieve, distribute, view and mark-up to scale, and print building documents and blueprints.

SECURE SYSTEM
Built with the highest levels of security, both on a system and document level. Security features include, 128 Bit SSL Encryption for all data-transmission (the same level used by major financial institutions), unique user id and password protection and administrative control of document access and permissions.

PATENT-PENDING SCALING TECHNOLOGY
The Archaio patent pending scaling technology allows a user to immediately zoom into virtually any part of any floor of any building in full screen resolution while maintaining accurate and complete scaled measurements similar to high-end Computer  Aided Design tools, but without the time, expense or necessity of CAD software.

FAST DOCUMENT RETRIEVAL
Powerful SEARCH capabilities allow users to QUICKLY locate desired documentation. Rather than fumbling through a room of paper-based plans, trying to find a blueprint, users can find documents by entering a keyword (simple search) or more specific search criteria (advanced search). Combined with an intensive Archaio approach to document indexing, users can find documents by building, project, description, document number, date, revision, author or other user defined fields.

INSTANT DOCUMENT DISTRIBUTION
Reduce or eliminate printing and shipping costs by providing instant, global distribution of blueprints and building-centric documents. Features include the ability to mass distribute documents, as well as provide documents to singular users. Additionally, for security purposes, these accounts can be time and date restricted.

POWERFUL MARK-UP TOOL SET
The Digital Building™ system is designed for active document use, including the ability to create "overlays", which allow  for document annotations, mark-ups, or take-offs, all fully to scale, yet without damaging or changing the underlying  document.  The included tool set includes tools for measuring and marking lines and polylines, providing area measurements  for circular, rectangular and other polygon shapes, adding text annotations, measure angles, and even hyper-linking between documents, to other web pages, or even to live building controls (such as security cameras or sensors).
