Geocoding

Geocoding is the process of assigning Latitude and Longitude coordinates to all addresses (referring, receiving, and patient addresses). After coordinates are assigned, mileages are auto-calculated, bio-surveillance alerts can be setup, spatial analysis reporting can be performed to view EMS incident plot densities, and statistical reports can be run.

    

emsCharts automatically assigns a Latitude and Longitude coordinate to addresses in the electronic patient care record.

emsCharts references MapQuest to determine the shortest driving route or straight-line distance between two locations (for air).

Setup alerts (via email) to notify you when a threshold number of calls is reached determined on location and frequency.

• For example, a FLU 10 10 10 alert would be setup as follows: 10 Flu-like symptom calls within 10 hours within a 10 mile radius.
• For example, a Overdose 5 5 5 alert would be setup as follows: 5 Narcan administrations within 5 hours with in a 5 mile radius.

Display all of your EMS incidents on a map. Specific calls can be filtered by based on call, date range, call type, call location, etc.
