VRiskMAP™
Mobile Mitigation Unit
The VRiskMAP™ Mobile Mitigation Unit brings the power and functionality
of the various software tools into the field for use before, during and
after a disaster.
The Mobile Mitigation Unit uses a Fujitsu Stylistic LT P-600 Pen Tablet
computer, a fully functional hand-held computer with the following
features:
• Weighs less than three pounds
• 10” wide - 6.5” across – 1” thick
• Windows 2000 operating system
• Pentium lll 600/300 Mhz
• 256MB RAM
• 15 GB hard drive disk
• Touch-screen technology with stylus
Using this powerful computer to run VRiskMAP™
and the MitigationPlan.com
system, the user can leave the office and continue to input and modify
data as well as produce detailed maps from on-the-scene information.
This unit is especially useful in locating and documenting critical
facilities and infrastructure, collecting information about damaged
locations, and analyzing response plans in real-time during actual
events. To aid in the use of this technology for pre-disaster planning,
real-time response, and post-event recovery, Visual Risk Technologies
has incorporated the following additional features into the Mobile
Mitigation Unit:
• GPS Technology – A standard GPS unit is attached to the Pen Tablet
computer to provide the user with an accurate reading of the latitude
and longitude location of the unit at any time (with a satisfactory
connection to the satellite network). With one click the unit will
change the position of the local map to show the current location, which
can then be added to an existing database. This feature is exceptionally
useful when a user needs to add a critical facility or damaged location
information to the map and database.
• Digital Photography – With the digital camera the user can take
pre- and post-disaster photos, pre-fire plan photos, and safe-school
plan photos – to name a few. The user can easily attach the digital
camera to the Pen Tablet system and transfer (copy) the photos to the
hard drive and link to the appropriate database. This link allows the
user to find the location using VRiskMAP™
and view the attached photos.
• All-weather Case and Peripherals – For use in the field, an
all-weather case is provided.
• Additional Features - A suite of peripherals including a docking
station, a portable keyboard, a USB mouse, extra protective screen
covers, and an additional stylus are provided.
