WELCOME PALMETTO VISION (Integrating UICDS, IPAWS and vUSA) The goal of this effort is a county-centric Emergency Management Common Operating Picture (EM-COP) framework that provides ESF personal consistent processes, tools, in order to more effectively plan and respond to real-time events. Presentation prepared by: Phillip Armijo – Director of Programs Robert Zawarski – Chief Technology Officer Earth Technology Integration (ETI)
Information sharing leads to improved situational awareness (SA) and a common operational picture (COP) that can be seamlessly updated. S ITUATIONAL A WARENESS

The baseline toolset demonstrates a broad range of the systems initial capabilities. **Viewing the data can be accomplished using a range of different front end software tools. As the Palmetto Vision system evolves additional front end interfaces will be connected to the UICDS Core. E ND U SER A PPLICATIONS A PPLICATION I NTEGRATION
P ALMETTO V ISION - A Spoke-and-Hub Design Project Overview: Hub server installed at State Emergency Operating Center (SEOC) 30 servers deployed to County Emergency Operating Center’s (CEOC) South Carolina National Guard (SCNG) 1 server and 7 workstations Oct 12 th Beta Testing starts Oct 20 th Working Group meets to establish when system goes from Beta to Operational Palmetto Vision has been recognized by SAIC, the developers of UICDS, and DHS for size, scope and uniqueness of it's UICDS implementation South Carolina will be one of the first to implement a state-wide IPAWS system allowing every county access to the full-range of IPAWS-OPEN 3.0 capabilities. DHS's Virtual USA is integrated into the Palmetto Vision network to seamlessly share data to every county as well as out to the state and federal level. Displaying Data within COP: Infrastructure Federal Level – HSIP Freedom State – DOT (Traffic Cams), DHEC, SCGIS, and Forestry Commission County – GIS Departments Vehicle tracking – Blue Force Tracking, AFF, Outerlink, and FleetMatics Personnel tracking – FlexTrain, cell phone GPS apps EMD Specific 911 calls Live video streaming – tablets, cell phones, county buildings, and schools

Each county will be able to download each image for further analysis.
