In such situations, there may be confusion about roles and responsibilities, communication breakdowns, and a lack of coordination. Shortly after 9/11, the U.S. government commissioned programs that ultimately led to the National Incident Management (NIMS) framework which defines...

To many, sentiment analysis is known as opinion mining, a natural language processing (NLP) technique used to determine the emotional tone or sentiment expressed in a piece of text. It involves analyzing text data to identify whether the sentiment expressed is positive, negative, neutral, or sometimes even more nuanced emotions like anger, joy, sadness, etc.  The primary goal of sentiment analysis is to understand the underlying...

Complex emergency management is fundamentally a lesson in organized chaos where accountability is a core foundational element of shared situational awareness. Knowing where to find what you need can be as chaotic given that response assets — the vehicles, equipment, autonomous platforms — are rarely in one place and scattered throughout an area of operation. Asset inventory coupled with resources and capability on a “single...

Modular Open Systems Architecture (MOSA) refers to an approach that promotes the design and implementation of systems using open standards and modular components. It emphasizes the use of well-defined interfaces and standards, allowing for the seamless integration and interchangeability of various subsystems and components. In the military and public safety context, MOSA offers significant value by enhancing interoperability, scalability, and affordability of strategic and tactical...

While "domain awareness" has been a long-standing requirement for military and counter-terrorism operations, Blueforce has been hearing this more and more for incident management in the public safety and emergency management spaces. Domain awareness is of paramount importance for emergency managers as it provides a comprehensive understanding of the operating environment in which emergencies or disasters occur. Here are several reasons why domain awareness is...

US Army training per the Maneuver Captain's Career Course focuses intensively on how to generate company level maneuver including Assembly Areas, phase lines, targets, routes, breach points, etc. One aspect that is used to (theoretically) control a company's movement was the FLOT or forward line of troops. Sixteen years later this concept has developed to account for our growing fleet of robots, autonomous platforms, and...
