Rave Mobile Safety and RapidDeploy to Deliver the World’s Largest Public Safety Data Sharing Project

Curated by: Gert Jan Wolf - Editor-in Chief for The Critical Communications Review

Rave Mobile Safety, the trusted provider of technology solutions that enhance critical communications, increase resiliency, and improve safety, has partnered with RapidDeploy, the industry leader in cloud-native 9-1-1 mapping and analytics, to launch the world’s largest public safety incident data sharing solution in the state of California. This first of its kind project will utilize public safety data aggregation, intelligence sharing, workflows, and notification capabilities found in Rave Aware to enable Computer Aided Dispatch (CAD) data sharing, interoperability, and real-time information exchanges while leveraging best-in-class mapping and data visualization from RapidDeploy Radius Mapping.

With the increase in size and frequency of disasters such as wildfires, earthquakes, and flooding, collaboration between police, fire, EMS, and other agencies has become more critical. In the past, integrated responses have been hampered by jurisdictional boundaries, siloed communications, and reliance on on-premise legacy technologies. California is the first statewide implementation of Rave Aware’s data sharing technology, combining insights from disparate systems for improved outcomes, and sets the stage for a wide variety of data to be integrated into the RapidDeploy platform in a unified way as part of the 9-1-1 call taker workflow.
