DistantEmergency app analytics for December 19

Save a life. Wherever they are. DistantEmergency (previously known as 911anywhere) is a must for anyone who communicates with friends, family or colleagues in distant locations, especially by video. If you witness someone having a sudden emergency with no one on scene able to call for help, you could be their only hope…from hundreds of miles away. DistantEmergency lets you find, save and, if ever necessary, call the 911/emergency dispatch agency for U.S. locations. There is no faster way to send emergency services to a distant location. Fast. Accurate. Always. Dialing 911 on a phone connects you with the 911 agency near you. For an emergency in a distant location, you would need to report the distant address to this operator, who would need to research which agency covers that location and how to contact them, wasting precious time. The methods and speed with which local 911 agencies can handle these distant emergencies vary greatly, if an agency has the capability at all. DistantEmergency lets you contact the distant 911/emergency dispatch agency immediately and your contact’s address is already displayed to you in the app. Seconds save lives! DistantEmergency uses ArcGIS geolocation data and a proprietary database built with publicly available 911/emergency dispatch agency contact and coverage data from sources such as DHS, FCC, public records and direct outreach to agencies themselves. Refinements and updates of the DistantEmergency database are continuous. Each time the app is opened, all agency information for saved contacts will have been checked against the database within recent weeks, with updates automatically and instantly applied to saved contacts. With preconfigured contacts, you do not need a data or internet connection to contact a distant 911/emergency dispatch agency…just phone reception. Contacts’ pre-configured data is local to your phone and the call is made from your phone itself, without any other connections or infrastructure. Instructions Enter a distant address (voice dictation is supported) and click Find Emergency Dispatch to view the 911/emergency dispatch agency covering that location. Click Create Contact to save this data for those with whom you regularly communicate, especially over video, during which you are more likely to become aware of an emergency. In an emergency… 1. Tap Contacts icon at the bottom. 2. Tap the contact having the emergency. 3. Confirm the victim is at or near the saved address. 4. Tap "call emergency dispatch." 5. Tap the phone number that appears at the bottom to make the call. Make every effort to stay connected with the victim. If you cannot add a call, merge calls or use a separate device, it is a higher priority to contact that dispatcher as soon as possible, even if you must disconnect with the victim. Warnings DistantEmergency calls are made with your device's phone calling feature to a 10-digit phone number. In order for a DistantEmergency call to be made, your device must have cellular phone calling service.  DistantEmergency is for emergency use only when the caller and emergency location are in different 911 agency coverage areas. If in doubt, dial 911 by phone. To report an emergency at your own location or within the same 911 agency coverage area, dial 911 by phone. If in doubt, dial 911 by phone. DistantEmergency cannot determine the location of a distant emergency. You must provide the emergency’s exact address to the dispatcher.  If DistantEmergency does not work properly in an emergency, dial 911 by phone. DistantEmergency is for emergency use only.
