New Features

• Call History Interface Improvements
  

  • What: Completely redesigned Call History interface eliminating horizontal scrolling, displaying complete addresses with apartment numbers, and providing narrative access for dispatch messages
  • Why: Reduces information access time and ensures critical details like apartment numbers are immediately visible during multi-unit building responses
  • How: Enhanced interface with smart unit display, chronological organization, and responsive design optimized for emergency workflows
  • Use Case: Responders can quickly review previous calls to the same address, access complete location details including unit numbers, and reference dispatch narratives for context during repeat responses
    

• Call History Narrative Search
  

  • What: Comprehensive search functionality for dispatch narratives with real-time highlighting, match navigation with up/down arrows, and dynamic match counting
  • Why: Enables emergency responders to instantly locate critical information within lengthy dispatch text that can contain up to 90,000 characters
  • How: Search within narratives using keyword functionality with up/down arrow navigation between matches and live highlighting
  • Use Case: Responders can quickly find specific details like victim descriptions, hazard information, or medical conditions within complex dispatch narratives during emergency response
    

• Unit Tile Status-Based Coloring
  

  • What: Dynamic status-based coloring for unit tiles throughout the application providing immediate visual indicators of unit response status
  • Why: Enables emergency responders to instantly assess resource deployment and response coverage during active incidents
  • How: Units display colors matching their most recent status update with real-time updates across incident details, map markers, and expanded views
  • Use Case: Incident commanders can rapidly identify available units, en route resources, and on-scene assets through color-coded visual indicators for critical resource coordination decisions
    
  • 
    

• Nearest Hydrants for iPhone and iPad
  

  • What: Comprehensive hydrant identification displaying the 5 closest in-service hydrants with interactive mapping and detailed hydrant information - modal interface for iPhone, integrated panel for iPad
  • Why: Significantly improves water supply planning capabilities for emergency responders during fire suppression operations
  • How: Access through incident details with real-time distance calculations, intelligent filtering for neighboring departments, and configurable information display
  • Use Case: Fire companies can rapidly identify available water sources for apparatus positioning and tactical planning, with iPad users getting integrated panel access while iPhone users receive focused modal display
    

Feature Enhancements

• ArcGIS Layer Attachment Display
  

  • What: Added comprehensive file attachment display and preview functionality for ArcGIS layer elements
  • Why: Enables mobile access to critical documents like plot plans and emergency response materials
  • How: Access through ArcGIS layer interactions with document preview capabilities
  • Use Case: Responders can view building plans, hazmat information, and emergency response documentation directly from map layers during incident operations
    

• Preplan Level Offline Implementation
  

  • What: Added comprehensive offline support for preplan level functionality enabling full access to multi-level building preplan data without internet connectivity
  • Why: Ensures critical building information remains accessible during network outages or poor connectivity scenarios
  • How: Downloads and caches preplan level data during offline synchronization
  • Use Case: Personnel responding to high-rise or complex buildings maintain access to floor plans and tactical information regardless of network conditions
    

• Clear Status Button Interface Enhancement
  

  • What: Redesigned clear status button from inline disposition to dedicated full-width button positioned below status options
  • Why: Provides clearer visual distinction between response status selection and status clearing actions
  • How: Status clearing now uses prominent dedicated button separate from status selection interface
  • Use Case: Emergency responders can more intuitively manage their status during incident operations with reduced risk of accidental status clearing
