The incident commander needs live information from all SCBA wearers at all entry points and to know they are accounted for in any scenario. The Dräger FireGround Accountability System accomplishes this in a rapidly deployable mode, minimises the need for voice communication via radio and allows remote monitoring with incident reporting. 

?Precise monitoring with independent real time data transmission

The Dräger FireGround Accountability System is engineered to transmit vital information in real time, giving you, as incident commander, more time to make tactical decisions. This advantage significantly increases the overall safety as well as reassures your team during a deployment. Dräger FireGround creates a proprietary network independent of available network and power infrastructure.  In addition, our solution also offers cloud services for customised reporting and remote monitoring.

Non-verbal communication allows less radio traffic

The Dräger FireGround Accountability System simplifies the continuous exchange of data by reducing the need for verbal status updates. This substantially frees up the use of land mobile radio (LMR) for tactical messages giving you and your team more time to concentrate on the main task at hand. Communication alerts, e.?g. a universal evacuation message, are received on the Electronic Control Unit with an audio alert. You see exactly who acknowledged the alarm and who did not, so you are able to contact the latter specifically using the land mobile radio. 

Rapid team deployment
The Dräger FireGround App is designed with firefighter-specific usability in mind, seamlessly integrating into standard operating procedures. The FireGround displays all active SCBAs with their unique equipment ID, the personal ID or the name of its wearer. Afterwards, each SCBA or firefighter can then be added to a team using a drag'n'drop. This way, teams can be effortlessly created and automatically added, for example, engine 26, attack 1.

Keeping track
In addition to being able to monitor firefighters at the scene, the FireGround App also helps you keep track as the incident unfolds. You can use it to draw incident layouts, make voice recordings, and add photos.  Every entry is time stamped to assist you with the report write up. With the FireGround Web, you have an overview of entry points, which allows higher command levels to be informed instantly if critical events occur.

Remote Monitoring
The optional Dräger FireGround Web enables command staff, management and workshop to utilise the data created on scene wherever they are. All that is needed is to connect the FireGround HUB to the Dräger Cloud via LTE. You can remotely monitor multiple incidents at any time and get the full incident log, increasing safety in large-scale and complex scenarios alike. The same information as on site like pressure readings, alarms as well as any other data the FireGround App user shares, are available. By having a direct connection for notes or pictures, central command always has a clear understanding what is happening in any given situation.
