ACTIVE INTEGRATIONTablet Command + First Arriving

Recent Alarms
A running list of recent calls between dispatches, with a plotted map.
What Connects
Cards or table view
Single or two-column cards, or a table with columns for number, type, priority, address, units, and time.
Color-coding by call type
For example, highlighting fire calls so they stand out from EMS runs.
Color-coded unit badges
So crews can spot their own apparatus at a glance.
Plotted map
Beside or below the list, to suit portrait or landscape screens.
