Method and System for an Automated Dispatch Protocol
First Claim
1. A method for handling emergency responses, comprising:
- generating display information for a plurality of dispatch schemes, each of the plurality of dispatch schemes corresponding to a different type of emergency response;
receiving an input to select one of the plurality of dispatch schemes; and
generating, based on the selected dispatch scheme, one or more signals to be utilized by a computer-aided dispatcher (CAD) to generate electronic broadcast instructions that are to be wirelessly transmitted to one or more emergency responders.

Abstract
A method and system for an automated dispatch protocol are described. Display information may be generated for multiple dispatch schemes that correspond to different types of emergency responses. Once a dispatch scheme is selected, a computer-aided dispatcher (CAD) may generate electronic broadcast instructions that are to be wirelessly transmitted to one or more emergency responders. The dispatch scheme selection may be in response to an input provided by an operator of a viewing station in which the display information is presented. One or more signals may be generated such that the CAD and/or an emergency responder locator can identify the emergency responders to be dispatched. The signals may include incident location information received from an emergency service and/or incident location information computed from coordinate information received from one or more sensors.
