Market Challenge

One of the main challenges in every emergency/security/anti terror event is the gathering, analysis and distribution of intelligence and tactical information based on the different profiles of the operational participants in the event (e.g. police, fire brigade, medical teams etc.) each profession requires a different set of information in order to complete his tasks. That said, the challenge is to optimize the decision making process by delivering precise relevant information to each function in the operational chain.At present, information can be received from multiple sources such as sensors, which can range from cellular devices, to dedicated state of the art information gathering systems, real time Human Intelligence and much more. The information can be visual, audio, IR etc. Another source of information is the organizational data warehouse that may contain structural blueprints, photos, license plate numbers, vehicle information, persomal files and other data which can be sent in real time to all field operatives and assist them in the descision making process and completion of their tasks.Having said that, the task of managing multiple flows of information based on time, position and user role (profile) poses a new challenge and opportunity in the field of Command and Control (C&C). the proposed system should have the capability of directing relevant information to the proper C&C operative in order to be analyzed and facilitate a decision on how to act upon receiving this information. Information security and privacy poses the second major challenge when dealing with security information and data. The data should be protected all along the system flow, on the server over the air and at the operational endpoint. At any given moment any information has to be protected making sure it doesn’t get to the wrong hands.

LOMISS SECURE The Lomiss Secure System (LSS) is designed with the operational Command & Control process in mind. The systems main philosophy is to connect a remote operative to necessary data on location, according to the operator profile (e.g. medic, firefighter, assault team, negotiator, scene commander etc.) and in real time, meaning that each operator can gain access to all relevant data required to take an effective, correct and professional decision on location and in real time. The system is designed to give each function in the operational chain the possibility to contribute information/intelligence in real time in order to improve the decision making and operational process. This is done using a smart and easy to use interface that requires minimal intervention from the operative and without using any voice interface which is much harder to secure.

Lomiss Secure

C&C benefits from the system on various levels. Starting from the GIS integration that can display the location of each operative, real time textual (and visual) data from selected endpoints and more. The Lomiss Report Generator (LRG) which can deliver data and analysis on multi levels and cross-sections improving debriefing and event summation. Through the cross connection with organizational databases accumulating data for future events.All of the above deliver’s an improved quality of op-erational readiness, chain of operation and decision making.


System Structure

Server

• Real-time connections to multiple back-end data bases via Lomiss System Gateway (LSG)

• Advanced reporting capabilities using Lomiss Report Generator (LRG)

• GIS integration

• Advanced management tools using Lomiss Man-agement station (LMS) including :

• Association and relation of event information to multiple operational units from different professions (medic, firefighter, assault team, negotiator, scene commander, etc.)

• Full definition and profiling of operational unit required data

• Command delivery through a data link elimi-nating radio use and conjunction

• Dynamic archiving - archive any piece of information for future use (e.g. knowledge base)

• Burst into operator • Automatic location based on GPS location

• Data security and privacy. No information resides at the end point at any given moment

• Operational unit monitoring and control

• Improve organizational efficiency and creating a unified reporting structure

Features and BenefitsEnd Point (operative system)

• For use on most 2.75G and higher smart phones


Stage SWAT Firefighters Paramedics negotiator Command center

Stage 1:First police of-ficer arrives to the scene. He then makes first contact with the kidnapper. And gathers initial information/intelligence and transfers it to the C&C via the Lomiss end point

On route. Receives through the Lomiss system the area data, house blue-prints, informa-tion regarding the surrounding environment (possible sniper location, possible mobile command post etc.) and the kidnapper crimi-nal and personal data

On route. Receives through the Lomiss sys-tem the house blueprints and materials, near-est hose connec-tions, possible hazardous ma-terials on site, weather forecast and wind direc-tions

On route. Receives through the Lomiss sys-tem the house blueprints, medical data of hostages (if possible) near-est evacuation points (hospitals etc.) and routes (if possible with traffic informa-tion)

On route. Receives through the Lomiss sys-tem the kidnap-per criminal and personal data

Retrieves data from databases – municipal, law enforcement, weather, coordi-nates and pri-oritize all teams arriving to the scene in order to avoid confusion using the GIS module etc.

Stage 2:The SWAT, Fire-fighters and Paramedics ar-rive to the scene. Operational cycle begins

Snipers and spot-ters report intel-ligence and visual to C&C through the Lomiss End Point based on predefined forms and pro-tocol. Various ways to transfer information (e.g. live video feed, photos, built in reporting etc.)

Receives infor-mation to Lo-miss End Point regarding status updates, weather changes, location and direction of doors and win-dows and other predefined infor-mation needed by protocol. Report to c&c as required

Receives infor-mation to Lo-miss End Point regarding status updates to hos-tages, location, injuries, gen-eral status, size of doors and other predefined infor-mation needed by protocol. Report to c&c if need

Receives status updates, psycho-logical profile and any personal data he needs for the completion of negotiation. Pos-sibility of opening a dedicated chan-nel with relevant personal (phsicol-ogy)

Receives intelli-gence and infor-mation from all units and infor-mation sources. Automatically updates status via predefined protocol and profile to all units. If needed c&c bursts to any unit with specific information

Example ScenarioLet’s take, for example, An all-too common scenario which may serve for illustration: A barricaded suspect


Stage SWAT Firefighters Paramedics negotiator Command centerStage 3:Kidnapper spotted mov-ing to kitchen leaving hostag-es unattended

Spotters see kid-napper moving in the house and reports to c&c Throuogh the Lomiss End Point

Receives status updates and ready com-mand from c&c throuogh the Lomiss End Point

Receives status updates and ready com-mand from c&c throuogh the Lomiss End Point

Recieves update from spotters. Distracts kidnapper and gives breach command through Lomiss End Point

Receives the report process and transfer ready command to firefighters and med-ics updates peripheral units and collabora-tors (hospitals etc.)

Stage 4: SWAT breaches and neutralizes the kidnapper and release the hostages

Breaches in. Spotters transfer real time vi-sual to c&c, swat leader and fire-fighters leader

Move into fire fighting posi-tion leader gets live feed through Lomiss End point

Move into evacuation position

Gets live feed from spotters to the Lomiss End Point continues distrac-tion of kidnapper

Collects all data com-mands and prioritizes entry sequence (fire-fighters, medics, and negotiator). Reports to peripheral units
