GeoCast

As the GIS interface to DCC's emergency notification solutions, GeoCast provides quick and easy selection of targeted geographic areas requiring rapid, accurate communication. The seamless integration of digital, street-level maps with the most accurate phone data available enables the immediate delivery of this incident-specific information or potentially life-saving instruction.

GeoCast is based on the GIS industry standard, ArcView from ESRI (Environmental Systems Research Institute), making it extremely easy-to-use, feature rich and compatible with DCC's proven and reliable emergency notification software. Whether alerting local residents of a fast approaching storm front, a missing person or mandatory evacuation, the technology quickly distributes important, timely information to everyone inside user-defined call-out zone(s).
