Emergency Services
All emergencies services are the forefront of national prevention, protection and rescue. Blom has many clients in the emergency sector and are active in the EENA (European Emergency Number Association), EENA are an association developed to promote the knowledge and usage of the 112 emergency number across Europe.
Under today’s strict budgetary confinements emergency services are forced to reduce costs while increasing their performance. From dealing with minor public disturbances to the threat of terrorism, Blom’s geospatial data and solutions can be used in a variety of ways to improve efficiency, add locational intelligence and provide detailed visualisations of sites not accessible via normal methods.
Bloms oblique aerial imagery is recognized by EENA, last year they awarded Brussels Fire Brigade for using Blom’s geo referenced oblique aerial images as a new key integrated component within the daily workflow of the brigade. Oblique aerial imagery has proven very valuable for emergency services by providing previously unattainable visuals. Georeferenced oblique image libraries aid the decision process and saves time, resources, and, most importantly, lives.
