NICE Inform

Monitor and Manage Incident Information in Any Media 

Modern emergency centers and public safety organizations need to deal with a variety of incoming information sources, unlike in the past where there were just voice calls. NICE Inform helps emergency centers manage multimedia incident information efficiently and effectively. It captures all available data, providing all the facts as they unfold and increasing the chances that all vital evidence is available to review.
 
Today’s public safety emergency communications centers must be able to take in and process event information in a variety of media: audio, video, photographic, Computer-Aided Dispatch (CAD) systems, Geographic Information Systems (GIS and others). All media crucial for investigation, evaluation and training must be captured, reconstructed, organized and stored accurately, efficiently and securely.
 
NICE Inform fuses these different types of media into a common application and interface. It provides structure to unstructured multimedia, seamlessly combining the data for a complete, authentic, chronological audio/visual timeline and 360-degree view.
 
Specifically, NICE Inform enables your command and control center to:
 
Monitor and verify any communication and interaction
With live monitoring functionality, supervisors can listen-in on any call. Supervisors and individual call-takers can instantly review calls to verify call information.
 
Capture multimedia
Your center can record and store telephone, VoIP and radio calls, closed-circuit TV and other screen images, text and picture messages, and more. Operators can append additional recorded media with pictures, reports, texts, faxes and other electronic content.
 
Search multimedia inputs
Advanced search parameters enable reviewers and investigators to locate an incident and its associated media with pinpoint accuracy.
 
Reconstruct incidents with a 360° real-time view
A consolidated, multimedia view of event data enables investigators, auditors and trainers to reconstruct what people said, saw and did.
 
Organize and access information electronically
Event media can be stored in individual incident folders with instant and secure web-based access for authorized reviewers.
 
Collaborate easily
Colleagues from within and between public safety organizations can instantly share and send secure multimedia via DVD or email.
NICE Inform’s ability to quickly search, review and organize incident information delivers a comprehensive understanding of what happened. It consolidates information often stored in different silos, allowing for faster detection and better, more informed decision-making. Plus, NICE Inform’s scalable, modular architecture provides the option to grow your media capture capabilities as your needs and the needs of the people your protect grow.
