Samsun Metropolitan Municipality Fire Department carried out an important study in order to respond to incidents quickly and effectively and to work in a more coordinated manner with the 112 Emergency Call Center. In addition to the new equipment purchased to carry out search and rescue efforts more effectively and powerfully in natural disasters, 25 tablets have now been procured. Reports coming to the 112 Emergency Call Center will now be delivered simultaneously to the fire brigade's tablets. In this way, teams will be able to follow the process from the moment the report is made until the end of the incident via tablets. By providing faster coordination with the tablets used, it is aimed for fire brigades to respond to emergencies more quickly and effectively by quickly determining the routes and road conditions with the navigation system.
