Abstract
Methods, systems, and products provide emergency services during emergency situations. When an emergency situation is determined, activation commands are sent to activate cameras and/or microphones within a geographic vicinity of the emergency situation. Mobile devices and traffic cameras, for example, are thus instructed to capture image and audio data during the emergency situation.
