With safety at every location
A precise, up-to-date and reliable map base is the foundation for any effective operational navigation. Standard maps do not depict many important routes and restrictions for BOS or do not allow for regular, needs-based updates.
Precision and availability in use
To ensure that emergency services reach their destination safely and quickly, geodata must be complete, up-to-date and tailored to the specific requirements of the police, fire service and civil defence.
Standard cards often reach their limits here - for example for operations in remote areas in fields and forests, such as access roads along railway lines, maintenance paths in forests, inspection paths on dams, access to transformer stations or individual locations on the edge of settlements.
Or if Closures, Construction sites and Temporary restrictions must be taken into account.
What the right insert card must be able to do
The card base must be a Robust, flexible and reliable basis for routing and navigation systems and have the following characteristics:
- Mapped accessibility over the last few metres - Precise route directly to the location with blue light routing
- Consideration of non-classified routes in the map - e.g. pedestrian zones, forest and park paths, access roads along railway lines, maintenance paths in forests, inspection paths on dams, access to transformer stations or individual locations on the edge of settlements.
- Updateable map elements - e.g. closures, construction sites, temporary access roads
- Map entry of operational POIs - Hydrants, extinguishing water extraction points, deployment points
- Localisation and attribution of different driving states - Normal driving, blue light driving, special rights
- Stored restrictions for vehicles - Lorry restrictions according to height, weight, width
- Map-based control of turn-by-turn directions
- Route weighting through map attributes - Prioritisation or exclusion of road sections
- Ongoing expandability of the card base - e.g. new paths, access roads, temporary routes
- Offline-capable map use and synchronisation - Centralised database, even with dead spots
Can be integrated into running systems for continuous updates
Via a powerful Server API the map data should be continuously updated between Control centre and emergency vehicle can be synchronised.
So everywhere Identical data and routing algorithms available - online and offline. Even in the event of dead spots or temporary offline operation, navigation remains reliable and fully functional.
The map that unites everything - Localion Germany Plus Map
The Localion Germany Plus Map combines commercial digital road maps with the plus of over 1 million kilometres of additional roads and paths from official cadastral data. Based on official geodata (ATKIS), the map offers an area-wide, detailed road network that goes beyond standard maps - including terrain, land use, water infrastructure and special technical features. A highly detailed map basis optimised for BOS that precisely depicts real conditions.
- Digital premium road maps of Germany
- Non-public, official road network (ATKIS) - seamlessly integrated into the map display
- Additionally mapped passable routes through qualification by map experts
- Topographical layers: forest areas, bodies of water, landforms
- Building contours and house perimeters for precise georeferencing
- Routing-relevant map attributes: Driving profiles (blue light, lorry etc.)
- Address and object search functions based on the map
- Traffic data: Real-time and history (traffic jams, roadworks, etc.)
- Compatibility with GIS systems: Use in analysis and management systems
- Continuous map update
The perfect addition: Localion Navigator BOS
The tried-and-tested Localion Navigator BOS and the Germany Plus Map form a Consistent, application-specific system from the central control centre to the emergency vehicle.
The result: Precise routing, always up-to-date data and maximum reliability in daily operation. With the highest data protection standards.
