Acquiring and processing data associated with an incident among multiple networked computing apparatuses
First Claim
1. A method for acquiring and processing data associated with an incident among one or more network computing apparatuses, the method comprising:
- provisioning via at least one computing apparatus an interface associated with a mode of service of the at least one computing apparatus;
receiving via the interface data associated with the incident; and
analyzing the data received according to rules associated with the mode of service, wherein the rules include sending a notification to an incident command when abnormalities associated with the incident are determined from vital monitors for measuring vital life signs;
wherein the interface comprises a form for documenting the data, the form being compatible with one or more fields which are concurrently shared among the one or more networked computing apparatuses, the one or more field comprising at least one of an incident name field and a safety message field.

Abstract
Methods, systems, and apparatuses are provided for acquiring and processing incident data among multiple networked computing apparatuses. A method involves provisioning an interface associated with a mode of service of a computing apparatus, receiving incident data via the interface, and analyzing the data received according to rules associated with the mode of service. The interface includes a form for documenting the incident data where the form is compatible with one or more fields capable of being concurrently shared among networked computing apparatuses. The interface may be modified in response to receiving the data where a view of the incident data is based on the mode of service. The method further involves recording the data received and transmitting the data received to one or more other networked computing apparatuses over a wireless network based on a mode of service activated on each of the networked computing apparatuses.
