Seeking Volunteers for Two EIDD Working Groups

The Conveyance of EIDD Working Group will focus on developing an ANSI accredited NENA/APCO Standard for transporting (conveying) Emergency Incident Data Documents (EIDDs) between systems (FEs). The data elements contained in EIDDs are defined in a soon to be released joint APCO/NENA ANS. The new Standard to be developed by this NENA/APCO working group will define how EIDDs are exchanged and transported from NG9-1-1 networks and systems. Expertise in information sharing and specifically in using web services and other protocols is desired. Operational expertise familiar with the needs for exchanging data between call takers and dispatchers, emergency responders and other user systems is also highly sought. We are looking for a well-balanced group that will include contributions from technical and operational subject matter experts. The WG plans to start meeting in March.

The Management of EIDD Working Group will focus on developing an ANSI accredited NENA/APCO Standard to provide guidance to 9-1-1 Authorities, PSAP Managers, and application developers on how to manage data interoperability between NG9-1-1 functional elements, public safety applications within the PSAP, originating and assisting PSAPs, emergency responder applications and other law enforcement, fire and EMS entities.
