Summary
"The project resulted in a methodology and approach to achieve interoperability between local governments and federal/provincial/territorial Emergency management agencies and successfully demonstrated the benefits of national situational awareness. Although the project was relatively small and only scoped to be a study, Kelowna was able to leverage this activity as a catalyst to help them implement a production version of the MASAS interface to their CAD system. Today, this has resulted in an operational system which shares Kelowna local situational awareness into MASAS."
