Event-based responder dispatch
First Claim
1. A method of automated communication between a computing device of a responder and a computing device of a dispatch unit, the method performed by the computing device of the responder, the method comprising:
- determining that an event has occurred, the event is associated with the responder;
in response to determining that the event occurred, automatically sending an indication of the event to the computing device of the dispatch unit;
receiving, from the computing device of the dispatch unit, a request for information, the computing device of the dispatch unit is configured to send the request for information in response to receiving the indication of the event;
obtaining the requested information; and
sending the requested information to the computing device of the dispatch unit.

Abstract
Dispatch-aiding communications between computing devices of a responder and a dispatch unit include a computing device of the responder determining that an event occurred, automatically sending an indication of the event to a computing device of the dispatch unit, receiving a request for information from the computing device of the dispatch unit, obtaining the information requested by the computing device of the dispatch unit, and sending the information requested by the computing device of the dispatch unit to the computing device of the dispatch unit. The computing device of the dispatch unit sends the request for information to the computing device of the responder in response to receiving the indication of the event.

9. A computing device for communicating between a responder and a dispatch unit, the computing device comprising:
-
a processor; and a memory having instructions stored thereon, wherein the instructions, in response to execution by the processor, cause the computing device to; determine that an event has occurred, the event is associated with the responder; automatically send an indication of the event to a dispatch computing device in response to determining that the event has occurred; receive, from the dispatch computing device, a request for information, the dispatch computing device is configured to send the request for information in response to receiving the indication of the event; obtain the information requested; and send the information requested. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12)

13. A method performed by a computing device carried by a responder for communicating with a dispatch unit, the method comprising:
-
receiving a signal from at least one of a responder device and a component of the computing device; determining whether the signal indicates that an event has occurred; in response to determining that the event has occurred, transmitting a message indicating that the event has occurred; in response to transmitting the message, receiving a first request for information from a computing device of the dispatch unit; obtaining the information identified in the first request; and transmitting the information. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19)
