Emergency Preplanning

Spatial documentation of buildings and sites organised for first responders, safety teams and emergency planners.

The problem

What this service addresses

Responders arrive without knowing interior layout, shut-off locations or access constraints. Preplans are often outdated text documents.

Outcomes

  • Visual, navigable orientation to the building before an incident
  • Documented utility shut-offs, access points and hazards where visible
  • Shareable preplan material for responder briefing

Capture scope

What we capture

  • Site access, hydrants and apparatus routes
  • Building entries, stairwells and roof access
  • Utility shut-offs, riser rooms and hazard storage areas where visible

Deliverables

What you receive

  • Preplan package with annotated site and floor imagery
  • Access and shut-off location index
  • Navigable model of captured areas

Professional review

Every deliverable is checked by a qualified reviewer against the capture record before release. Review confirms that measurements, annotations and evidence links are traceable to source data and that stated accuracy and intended use are documented on the deliverable itself.

Limitations and boundaries

  • This is documentation support, not an emergency plan authored by a qualified safety professional, and not a code compliance review.
  • Hazard identification is limited to what is visible and disclosed.
  • Response decisions remain entirely with the responding agency.
