B.C. DISPATCHReal-time Resource Tracking • DISPATCH provides a real-time tracking capability for appropriately
equipped mobile resources. Each resource, such as aircraft, appears as an icon on the display and has the following information displayed:
• Aircraft tracking information including speed, heading, and altitude, elevation, etc.
• Aircraft specific information such as aircraft registration, make, and type • Tracking status (whether the aircraft is being actively tracked, tracking has
been lost, or aircraft is located at base). Aircraft can stack on bases on the map.
• Aircraft alert and serviceability status (how quickly an aerial firefighting resource can be available)
• All aircraft data is archived and historical replay of resource information can be displayed for any selected date range
