DISCUSSION The Santa Ana Fire Department Computer Aided Dispatch (CAD) system assigns emergency calls to the closest available fire engine. The current Automated Vehicle Locator (AVL) system transmits unit location information through a broadband connection utilizing air cards. However, the current system is limited in its capabilities, in that the system delivers the Global Positioning System's signal to the AVL system server only when the units are logged in. The new wireless routers will allow the department to integrate real-time vehicle location information into the CAD system and thus provide the most expedient response to emergency calls based on vehicle location. Additionally, the new routers will integrate into the recently implemented county-wide Geographic Information System.
