Case Study
Leveraging GIS for Enhanced Emergency Communications in Placer County

Source: Esri
Placer County, confronted with a rising occurrence of emergencies such as wildfires, winter storms, and earthquakes, recognized the imperative to enhance its emergency communication methods. Leading this endeavour, the County’s GIS team initiated the creation of a unified platform, the Ready Placer Dashboard, offering near-real-time information during emergencies. Collaborating with Pro-West & Associates, the project leveraged ArcGIS Dashboards and interactive web maps to achieve its objectives.
