9-1-1 relies on data and information sharing, both locally and nationally. Because a standard 9-1-1 data system doesn't exist, the opportunity to share actionable data across the nation is limited.
The 911 DataPath is an initiative to produce a framework to enable the voluntary adoption of a uniform 9-1-1 data system. As a first step, stakeholders in the 9-1-1 community have come together to begin identifying important data points and a common way to reference them. This will help improve operations, support data needs to secure funding, and continue to standardize progress toward NG9-1-1.
The 911 DataPath initiative is underway and needs input on the types of administrative data for decision making that would be useful when shared with other 9-1-1 systems. In this webinar, initiative participants and the National 911 Program will address:
- How access to timely, automated, reliable data sharing will help PSAPs and ECCs in their everyday work;
- How the 9-1-1 community can learn about and contribute to this effort to ensure it best meets the needs of all 9-1-1 systems; and
- The types of data under consideration as the initial task of this data collection and sharing effort.
