Future of Telemetry Data

-As technology advances, telemetry data is talked about being used more
for firefighters

-Want to be able to track a firefighters location remotely, accurately, and in

real time

-Telemetry data use would allow the rescue team to track firefighters in
much quicker time
Future of Telemetry data

- Looking to update gas detectors and thermal imaging cameras

- Cameras allow the control officer to see what the firefighter is seeing and
improve rescue time

- Gas detectors would send info to control officer so they could monitor the
atmosphere and see changes happening

- Want to use telemetry data to track each other during fires

- Looking to improve these things in the United States
