Indoor Mapping Tools and Systems for First Responders
FY 2019-20 · 2019-06-03
Summary
A cloud-based software solution that allows first responders to maintain and access pre-incident maps and resource data from anywhere will be built as part of this project. The solution will have 3 major components: (i) a system that automatically digitizes different types of source maps into vector maps using machine learning algorithms, (ii) an annotation system that automatically recognizes key points of interests (e.g. fire hydrant, gas shutoffs, etc), and (iii) an export system that presents the mapping and annotation data in a standardized format, consumable in external systems, such as outdoor GIS systems.

Description (French)
Dans le cadre de ce projet, une solution logicielle infonuagique, qui permet aux premiers intervenants de tenir à jour et d'accéder aux cartes pré-incidents et aux données sur les ressources, où qu'ils se trouvent, sera développée. La solution comportera 3 composants majeurs : (i) un système, qui numérise automatiquement différents types de cartes sources en cartes vectorielles à l'aide d'algorithmes d'apprentissage machine, (ii) un système d'annotation, qui reconnaît automatiquement les principaux points d'intérêt (p. ex. bornes d'incendie, coupures de gaz, etc.), et (iii) un système d'exportation, qui présente les données cartographiques et d'annotation dans un format standard, utilisable par les systèmes externes, comme les systèmes SIG extérieurs.
