  1. Master Control

    SCIDS – Sub-$100 Communication Infrastructure Devices
  2. Team Black Matthew Bartkus Dominic Brooks Joshua Cruz Evan Savaria Daniel Swift Xiao Lin Mentor: Justin Brunelle
  3. Outline Define Problem Historically Problem Evaluation Problem Statement Customer Information Current Process Model Solution Statement Solution Objectives Solution Principles Required Hardware and Software Components Solution Benefits and Problems
  4. xiaolin Presenting… Define Problem Historically Problem Evaluation
  5. Define Problem Historically Lack of Interoperability Incompatible and Aging Communications Equipment Funding Planning Cooperation Radio Spectrum
  6. Problem Evaluation Communication Being Ridiculously Inefficient During Disaster Hundreds Failed to Receive Warning in 9/11 Columbine High School Massacre Oklahoma City Bombing Ohio River Flooding
  7. ProblemStatement Communication during disaster relief efforts becomes unreliable and ineffective when terrestrial networks are damaged. Unreliable and ineffective communication disrupts the coordination of relief efforts and the collection and dissemination of information vital to responders.
  8. DanIelSwift Presenting… Identify Case Study Case Study Specific Problem Evaluation
  9. SCIDS - Master Control
  10. Interface and Database SCIDS Master control serves as an interface and database that passes dispatch orders from the relief command center to response teams and taking in response team reports through the SCIDS data protocol.
  11. Update National Databases Its secondary function is to update national relief databases in an effort to coordinate the overall relief in the event of a disaster.
  12. Matt Bartkus Presenting… Customer Information Current Process Model
  13. Customer information Individuals and agencies involved in relief efforts Individuals affected by the disaster Volunteers Private relief organizations Government agencies Fifteen emergency support functions (ESFs) Communication Emergency Management
  14. MCOV NEMIS Current Process FEMA Liaison Officers Response Team Response Team Command Center/Dispatch In-Person Communication
  15. Diagram sources An Analysis of Inter-Agency Radio Communications with Emergency Responders Liaison Officer Position Checklist NEMIS-MT User Manual Why Can’t We Talk? Working Together To Bridge the Communications Gap To Save Lives
  16. Dominic Brooks Presenting… Solution Statement Solution Objectives
  17. Our Solution… The SCIDS project aims to solve the issues of communication first responders have, in an inexpensive, versatile and efficient manner.
  18. Our Objectives… Transfer of data to and from SCIDS devices Streamlined, User-Friendly User Interface Robust and versatile alert system Interoperability with other devices
  19. Joshua Cruz Presenting… Improved Process Flow Competition 2/27/2014 19
  20. MCOV NEMIS Old Process FEMA Liaison Officers Response Team Response Team Command Center/Dispatch In-Person Communication 2/27/2014 20
  21. Improved Process Command Center FEMA Liaison Officer(s) / Dispatch Team Information Flow Key External Database (NEMIS,IRIS,etc.) Dispatch/MASTER CONTROL Response Team Reports Updates from External Source SCID MASTER CONTROL Data Protocol Response Team(s) With SCIDS Hand-held 2/27/2014 21
  22. Competition There is no “competition” Master Control aims to mimic, combine, and extend the functionality of existing data storage systems Policies to keep in mind National Incident Management Systems Presidential Policy Directive 8 National Disaster Recovery Framework 2/27/2014 22
  23. Evan Savaria Presenting… Required Hardware and Software Components Solution Benefits and Problems
  24. Required Hardware Components
  25. Required Software Components Database Software Software providing the GPS coordinates of the responders
  26. Solution Benefits 100% communication in times of disaster Low cost to setup and maintain Private Network
  27. Problems with solution Coordinating efforts is a very difficult task Communication interference and delay User Error Master Control failure renders entire system useless
