112 readiness
Policy, location, routing, and response quality connected in one operational model.
PSAP Technology
CAD Integration
Computer-Aided Dispatch
CAD is not NG112 by itself, but NG112 data becomes useful only if it reaches the people and systems coordinating response. CAD integration may include location, caller data, incident notes, vehicle data and transfer context.
Call handling
->Incident record
->CAD
->Dispatch units
What it does
CAD integration connects emergency intake information with dispatch workflows and incident management.
CAD turns call intake into dispatchable incident workflow where locally supported.
How it works
- Receives incident and location context from call handling.
- Supports dispatcher decisions and resource assignment.
- Maintains incident records for audit and response.
Key interfaces and protocols
- Call handling APIs
- GIS layers
- Incident data
- Audit logs
Systems it interacts with
- PSAP
- Call handling
- GIS
- Additional data
- Recording
Common failure modes
- Location visible to call taker is not transferred to CAD.
- CAD incident opens with incomplete address.
- Additional data is not searchable later.
- Integration outage forces manual rekeying.
Implementation considerations
- Map each data field from call intake to dispatch.
- Avoid overwhelming dispatchers with raw technical data.
- Test manual fallback and reconciliation.
Standards
- Operational integration practices
- ETSI NG112 context
