Pelix© Command Centre – Functional Overview
Data Management
Pelix© database enables relational data management and provides one-off recorded information centrally and easily. Security settings and interfaces guarantee high security and support dynamic management of
Basic data management
- Road maps
- buildings and infrastructure
- Scheduled event types
- Event requirements
- road infrastructure and construction sites
- Material and Procurement Instructions
Operational resources management
- Timetable and duty roster
- Resource allocation
- Vehicle data
- Medical stand-by duty
- Towing services
- Communication equipment
- Individual resource requirements
Reporting/Documentation
- Logging
- Statistics
Resources Database
Access to the constantly changing updated status as well as the availability of all resources over time is a prerequisite for acute deployment decisions and efficient case solutions. PELIX© provides resource data for redundant and decentralised work, thus supporting the current state of the overall cooperation. Resource areas include
Resource areas include
- Human Resources, Availabilities and Abilities
- Vehicle equipment, maintenance and use
- External resources, availability and emergency allocation
- Material procurement, repairs, deliveries
- Weapon storage and provision
- Communication equipment provision
- Object data and infrastructure update
Disposition Management
The optimal scheduling of acute events in the front end of a command control centre requires real-time data and an integrated user interface, delivered by continuous status displays and direct reporting.
Pelix© deployment planning integrates
- Deployment and team management
- Mindset of emergency forces
- Mindset of external Organisations
- Service orders and commissioning
- Escalation management
- Exchange of information between the forces deployed
- Activity logging
- Parallel daily business planning
Journal an Reports
The journal and logbook show immediate status and generate automatically assigned reports and an ongoing documentation.
Event-related capturing with time stamp of
- Call
- alarms
- Event keywords
- Activities
- Orders
- Resources
- Receipts
Event-independent retrieving / following by
- Call
- alarms
- Notifications
- Search queries
- Object/data mutation
- Dispositions
- Login/Logout times
Tracking
Positioning and movement reports must be carried out bi-directionally across the entire central office in order to ensure optimal cross-sectoral deployments. The Pelix© integrated positioning system is operated redundantly and optionally independently:
Pelix© tracking system
- Standard component S-Box
- Scalable system interconnection
- Redundant access to Cloud for PELIX© and emergency systems
- Redundant access to cloud for satellites and Mobile systems
- Standard extension GPS PDAs/Tablets
- Static or dynamic integration of location data from external systems
- Independent side-by-side operation
Safety
100% readiness and failure safety are the core substance of a command control center. A multi-redundancy, implemented via dynamic interfaces, is solved by the special layer model of Pelix© technology and guarantees a 100% parallel clocked decentralized and redundant infrastructure.
Centrally managed dynamic infrastructure (Pelix© redundancy model)
Central infrastructure
- BIT-Standard
- Clustering (GIS, App-Server, DB, Web-Serve)
Decentralised infrastructure
- Gateway (location)
- Communication
- projection screen
Decentral day disposition and pos integration
The comprehensive disposition in the eCH-0051 standard enables joint event-independent scheduling and realises an efficient day-to-day business. A fully integrated connection to outposts increases flexibility and is optimised for Mobile applications.
Shared scheduling
- eCH-0051 Standard
- Exchange of location data
- Independent of events/cases
- Integrated into the GIS as a separate layer
- Exchange of cases/events
- event/case
- activities (update)
- Completion
Mobile Post Integration
- Same functions as Command Center
- Role: decentral chiefs
- Features
- Profile configuration
- Events, Journal, Queries, GIS
- Order Disposition (Future)
- Personnel / Resource planning
Mobil
Optimal Mobile support requires platform independence and, in addition to geo data mapping, direct access to dynamic database contents with automatic synchronisation. The PELIX© fleet integration implements a vehicle-flexible connection
Mobile connections / platforms
- Windows 7 (8)
- iOS
- Android
Integrated fleet management
- Use of the existing infrastructure in the vehicle
- Scalable integration depth in vehicle electronics and additional equipment
- Data transmission via standard communication paths
- Complete integration into the personnel and material management
