Ness Technologies announced its Kingdom, a command and control system for homeland security forces, at the Israel HLS 2012 international conference on homeland security on in Tel Aviv, Israel.
The Kingdom system, already in operational use, is designed to manage missions assigned to the homeland tactical forces, including chemical weapon detection and identification teams, search and rescue teams, and security and medical teams. The system helps to allocate and assign personnel, disseminate reports from the field and create a “situation picture” of the forces’ performance in real time. The system is designed for war time, terror incidents and disasters of all kinds.
Kingdom comprises rugged mobile computers and is equipped with a special touch screen that facilitates working with gloves and protective clothing. The system’s digital maps and GPS devices enable maximum orientation and real-time friendly force tracking, while alerting forces entering high-risk areas.
