New Israeli app tracks disaster victims in real time, speeds emergency response
<br />
What Happened
When disaster strikes – whether caused by human hands or by nature – emergency responders on the scene must quickly locate people in the immediate area, identify and treat the injured, locate the missing, and arrange lodging and care for those whose homes have been damaged or destroyed.
Under the pressure of the moment, performing these tasks can be difficult when the damage spans a wide area and hundreds of volunteers are on the scene. How can this crucial task be managed effectively?
The complexity of managing such a situation was brought into focus on Sunday, March 1, when a ballistic missile launched from Iran struck a Beit Shemesh neighborhood, killing nine people, wounding dozens, and causing extensive damage.
There was widespread chaos at the scene as emergency personnel worked frantically to locate residents who were wounded or missing. First responders lacked an accurate list of area residents, which delayed their rescue efforts.
